Glad I asked! The above configuration is not using "src_as" and "dst_as" 
ACL types that I am asking about. It is using "src" and "dst" ACL types.

Matching IPv6 addresses is completely unrelated to this thread topic, 
but you may want to see the following commit message about "ipv6" 
problems recently fixed in master/v7. If you want to discuss IPv6 
matching, please start a new mailing list thread!

Thank you,

Alex.
