I think you're reading too much! :)
Blueprint for multicast:
IP Multicast
1. PIM, bi-directional PIM
2. MSDP
3. Multicast tools, source specific multicast
4. PGM
5. DVMRP
6. Anycast
Nowhere in here do I see IPv6 listed. And you have said so yourself below.
So I think it would be safe to asssume that your IPv6 scenarios are limited
to basic operations, IGP and BGP routing and perhaps QoS. So read the IPv6
documents with that in mind!
Now, from a technical standpoint, there's still a lot that can be done, but
you have to also look at the idea that IPv6 is not a "core" topic from
Cisco. So with that, the complexity and breadth will be less than what you
may be fearing.
Be familiar with the basic operations. Be familiar with any details or
specific nuances within the routing protocols. And just remember that it's
JUST another protocol stack. If you get it, when you get it, know where to
look the information up and everything will be fine.
So remember that "anything is fair game" but I wouldn't be TOO paranoid
about it all. There are enough other things to give you headaches! Look
at the capabilities with in the IOS that is tested on (12.2T) and until any
other announcement is made, that's what you'll be operating under.

Hi everyone,
according to the blueprint , there is no IPv6 in sections like :
Bridging/Switching, Dial, IP/IOS Features, Multicast and Security. I found
that only IGP/EGP routing and QoS are affected.
Is my assumption correct that only those areas that are listed will be
tested ?
More on that , Mcast for IPv6 is available from v12.3T but the current
tested version is 12.2T , am I missing something here ?
cheers,
Mariusz
