   The current route target distribution specification described in
   RFC4684 defines Route Target NLRIs of maxiumum length of 12 bytes.
   The IPv6 specific Route Target extended community is defined in
   RFC5701 as length of 20 bytes.  Since the current specification only
   supports prefixes of maximum length of 12 bytes, the lack of an IPv6
   specific Route Target reachability information may be a problem when
   an operator wants to use this application in a pure IPv6 environment.
   This document defines an extension that allows BGP to exchange longer
   length IPv6 Route Target prefixes.
