Hi Sumit,

Specifically I wanted to understand:
1. Whether FWaaS API supports IPv6
2. Whether reference plugin and vendor plugins support IPv6

I have  clarity w.r.t 1 above - As I mentioned in my email below (resource
model)  and as pointed out by you, IPv6 is supported by the API.
The reference plugin also does not have a restriction.
