IPv6 source routing, how to, it doesn't work IMO

Hello,

I'm looking for advice about how to implement a source based policy routing
on a cisco2600 router, which has the IOS 12.2(15)T8.

I define "ip policy route-map source_routing_tag" on
the fastethernet 0/1

Then I add the following route-map:

route-map source_routing_tag permit 10
set ipv6 next-hop 2001:800:40:2471::4

I've deleted the "match" clause to allow all pachets to get into
this route-map.

When I start to send packets through the router, the
"show route-map" counters are not incremented. I've added IPv4
addresses to both the router interface and the host, and I've checked
that with IPv4 those counters are properly incremented.

I don't have TAC support and I've been digging through the CISCO
web without success. My questions are:

Can this be made on IPv6 ? If not, what IOS should I use ?
if is not possible in any IOS, when it will be possible to do it ?

If you need more data, I will be delighted to send it to you.

Thank you very much, any help is greatly appreciated.

Oh, I thought that as you can define IPv6 ACLS inside a route-map
entry, and later attach that route-map to an interface
using the "ip policy route-map" command, it was already supported.

Do you know if from good sources ? I really need to know if
this is possible but I can not talk with the CISCO TAC support
and I dunno who else to ask.

Thank you very much for your answer!
