Gotcha. I always wondered why they developed Martini-draft VPN's on the Cat6K without having layer 3 MPLS VPN support. It just doesn't quite make sense to me. I guess it's just marketing hype. Cisco probably wanted to get there somewhat shortly after Juniper announced availability of layer 2 VPNs. There's definitely a need for layer 3 PE functionality and I know several large ISPs that are waiting for this feature on the Cat6K's. I've heard rumors that it's an ASIC problem and the feature will only be available with a hardware upgrade. That would not be good news:(
