[openstack-dev] [Neutron] [IPv6] Supporting upstream RAs

Awesome! I have a perfect lab to evaluate it...    :-)

Just a curiosity, it will work with ML2 and Flat Network (dual-stacked with
IPv4)? I would like to try to fit this into a running lab environment, if
possible...

I mean, currently, I have a lab with Flat Network topology (Havana without
ML2), my lab network was created with:

---
neutron net-create --tenant-id $ADMIN_TENTANT_ID sharednet1 --shared
--provider:network_type flat --provider:physical_network physnet1

neutron subnet-create --ip-version 4 --tenant-id $ADMIN_TENANT_ID
sharednet1 10.33.14.0/24 --dns_nameservers list=true 8.8.8.8 8.8.4.4
---

Where physnet1 is a "bridge_mappings = physnet1:br-eth0" pointing to my OVS
bridge "br-eth0". IPv4 router 10.33.14.1 is upstream (provider /
external)...

Reference: https://gist.github.com/tmartinx/7019826

So, I'm wondering here, at my IPv4 router 10.33.14.1 (gateway of sharednet1
10.33.14.0/24 network), I already have a up and running RA daemon
(radvd.conf) working in a dual-stacked environment BUT, currently, of
course, the OpenStack Instances only gets an IPv4 from 10.33.14.0/24 subnet
(and from dhcp-agent from network+controller node).

Anyway, I would like to try this "upstream RAs and SLAAC", like this:

---
neutron subnet-create --ip-version 6 --ipv6_ra_mode slaac
--ipv6_address_mode slaac --tenant-id $ADMIN_TENANT_ID sharednet1
2001:db8:1:1::/64
---

It works that way or, am I thinking it the wrong way?!

Also, my radvd.conf provides RDNSS/DNSSL and, my Ubuntu instances will have
the pacakge `rdnssd` installed, to deal with the resolv.conf properly.

Cheers!
Thiago
