Thanks to the list for all the help you've given me so far!
Another question: I am running BIRD 2.0.2 and peering with a host that is
announcing vpn4 mpls and vpn6 mpls routes.
The vpn4 mpls routes are working, but all of the vpn6 mpls routes appear as
withdrawn routes. I'm not sure why -- I looked at the packet capture in
Wireshark and the UPDATE messages containing the IPv6 routes all show zero
for Withdrawn Routes Length. Any ideas?
Here's the result of 'show protocols all peer1' (addresses changed):
