Hi, Sean,
Dnsmasq is managed by Cobbler. Cobbler may also manage isc-dhcpd + BIND
[0]. So, switching from dnsmasq requires 2 more services been installed. I
think it's not a big deal to a update Cobbler container. The most work will
be in adding ipv6 support into everything: fuelmenu, Nailgun/UI, a lot of
Puppet modules, especially L23network module, OSTF. Also, it doubles QA
efforts.
Other questions come up. Do we want to support dual stack too? When a user
will choose an IP version: once during master node installation or it'll be
allowed to switch over in any moment?
