It's even worse with the TurboIron. The (TurboIron-specific) manual
mentions that ipv6 multicast routing is unsupported, but that ipv6
management is supported.
It then goes into some detail about configuring ospf3 and how IPv6 routing
works on the TurboIron, configuring ipv6 interface addresses, setting up
static routes and all that. In fact, there are fully two chapters (70
pages) in the manual describing ipv6 routing functionality, and another
40-50 pages where ipv6 gets a mention.
Unfortunately, it doesn't mention that the TurboIron doesn't actually
support IPv6 routing at all. I.e. there are 70 pages in the
platform-specific manual describing features which simply don't exist on
the platform.
