... in the "router or layer-3 switch" section is rephrased somewhat more generically in the bullet ...

"If MPLS functionality (for example, BGP-free core, MPLS TE, MPLS FRR) is requested, the PE-routers and route reflectors must support "Connecting IPv6 Islands over IPv4 MPLS Using IPv6 Provider Edge Routers (6PE)" [RFC 4798]"

... in the same section. I would suggest we remove the first one.
