Appendix
It is naive to assume that RFC5036 compliant implementations have
supported IPv6 address family (IPv6 FEC processing, in particular)
in label advertisement all along. And if that assumption turned out
to be not true, then section 3.4.1.1 of RFC5036 would cause LSRs to
abort processing the entire label mapping message and generate an
error.
This would result in LDPv6 to be somewhat undeployable in existing
production networks.
The change proposed in section 7 of this document provides a good
safety net and makes LDPv6 incrementally deployable without making
any such assumption on the routers' support for IPv6 FEC processing
in current production networks.
