Well, don't know about anybody else, but I've been asking vendors for LDP6 for a while now, every time we approach them for new projects and they always look embarrassed when they realise that they a. don't have it b. are not involved in the standards process (draft-manral-mpls-ldp-ipv6-02) So please, if you are spending your hard earned cash, please ask for an LDP6 implementation, "no demand" should not be the case.

From my understanding, the protocol specs are there, just no implementation. So for now, you still have to use IPv4 for the MPLS network control plane and must either forward IPv6 natively dual-stack alongside IPv4, or transport IPv6 via 6(V)PE. "no customer demand", as usual. It's just us weirdos trying to do such things. :) Best regards, Daniel
