The current IPv6 implementation within the Linux kernel, and those of other IPv6 implementations, concentrate on providing a usable networking base for core IPv6 networking functions. While the theory and practice of Policy Routing provides many instances within IPv4 networking that are easily extensible to IPv6, IPv6 still exists mostly in a beta test period.

As you read through the RFCs defining IPv6, IPSec, and the related structures ...
