Title : BGP-MPLS VPN extension for IPv6 VPN
Author(s) : G. De Clercq et al.
Filename : draft-ietf-ppvpn-bgp-ipv6-vpn-03.txt
Pages : 14
Date : 2002-11-7
This document describes a method by which a Service Provider may use
its packet switched backbone to provide Virtual Private Network
services for its IPv6 customers. This method extends the 'BGP/MPLS
VPN' method [2547bis] for support of IPv6. In BGP/MPLS VPN,
'Multiprotocol BGP' is used for distributing IPv4 VPN routes over the
service provider backbone and MPLS is used to forward IPv4 VPN
packets over the backbone. This document defines an IPv6 VPN address
family and describes the corresponding route distribution in
'Multiprotocol BGP'. This document defines support of the IPv6 VPN
service over both an IPv4 and an IPv6 backbone, and using various
tunnelling techniques over the core including MPLS, IPsec, IP-in-IP
and GRE.

NOTE: The mail server at ietf.org can return the document in
MIME-encoded form by using the "mpack" utility. To use this
feature, insert the command "ENCODING mime" before the "FILE"
command. To decode the response(s), you will need "munpack" or
a MIME-compliant mail reader. Different MIME-compliant mail readers
exhibit different behavior, especially when dealing with
"multipart" MIME messages (i.e. documents which have been split
up into multiple messages), so check your local documentation on
how to manipulate these messages.
Below is the data which will enable a MIME compliant mail reader
implementation to automatically retrieve the ASCII version of the
Internet-Draft.
