There is no MSDP for IPv6, so inter-domain Any Source Multicast cannot
work yet.  Source-Specific Multicast can work; however, there are few
implementations of MLDv2 out there.

Additionally, when I talked with the Abilene NOC the other day, they
said they were not ready to enable IPv6 multicast-enabled MBGP yet.

There does appear to be an effort to make this a reality:

Does anyone know the current status of this work?
