2500 does not support MPLS, but it does support ISIS and BGP - 12.0.22 (4M
DRAM / 8M Flash)
2600 supports MPLS labels only (not MPLS-TE, etc) code to run would be
12.1.14 (48M DRAM, 16M Flash)

3600 supports MPLS well with:
MPLS labels -> 12.0.22 (48M DRAM, 8M Flash)
MPLS, MPLS-TE -> 12.1.14 (48M DRAM, 16M Flash)
MPLS, MPLS-TE, MPLS-CoS, MPLS-LDP -> 12.2.8T3 (64M DRAM, 16M Flash)

According to the Cisco Software Advisor, MPLS-TE and MP-BGP are supported
on the 4000-M with 12.1.14 SERVICE PROVIDER (16M DRAM, 4M Flash), but
I have not verified this.

You can always check the Cisco Feature Navigator and/or Software Advisor
http://www.cisco.com/go/fn

Also, most production networks use 12.0ST for MPLS-TE and MPLS-VPN,
and even then, they use specialized custom code (IOS  patches) that you
cannot
download on CCO.  If you want real-world experience, you have to start there
(or go the J-brand route).
