If Cisco won't do a good job of RBE on the 7206VXR, I may just need to stick with PPPoEv6 on the SR train. I have that successfully working in a test bed.

I haven't checked, but all the RBE/unnumbered vlan support for IPv6 with proxy-ND, better radius backend for DHCPv6, and supposedly IA_TA support for DHCPv6 will be in the ASR only. The features in IOS SR train are somewhat functional but extremely limited. If I find myself having to spend money on ASRs, I may just spend the money replacing them with Juniper. Only reason I haven't is that I haven't needed to spend the money at all. Jack
