Sorry, I wasn't on the L2TPext list back in March...

The minimal modification that RFC2667 should suffer in order to be IPv6
compatible would be, of coarse, having the IP address fields changed
from 32 to 128 bits. Another possible change would be including the Flow
Label field to the TunnelIfEntry (it includes now LocalAddress,
RemoteAddress, EncapsMethod, HopLimit, Security and TOS). TOS can be
used as traffic class, so just a name change there.

Not that I know of.

I pinged the list back in March about L2TP over IPv6 and received
nothing but
deafening silence. I would hope that any changes in the MIB to support
L2TP over
IPv6 would be very, very, minimal.
