This RFC 6829 was published in
2013.
Abstract
The Multiprotocol Label Switching (MPLS) Label Switched Path (LSP) Ping and traceroute mechanisms are commonly used to detect and isolate data-plane failures in all MPLS LSPs, including LSPs used for each direction of an MPLS Pseudowire (PW).
However, the LSP Ping and traceroute elements used for PWs are not specified for IPv6 address usage.
