Hi,

Excuse my ignorance, but doesn't this mean that clients can "steal" each 
other's IPv6 at will?

Yes, they can indeed.

Lack of IPv6 is probably my biggest complaint re basic/sg zones, but just using 
router adv. seems like bad security, worse than not having IPv6 at all.

Thoughts?

Basic implementation would require 'locking' IPs to guest using ip6tables with security_group.py under KVM.

With SLAAC you can calculate the IP the guest will use and set that in the rules.

That way you can prevent hijacking addresses.

Hello,

Is it possible to toss in an IPv6 subnet in a basic setup?


Yes. I'm doing so in a setup, but it goes outside CloudStack. Simply
configure your router to do Router Advertisements and your guests will
get a IPv6 address.

Be aware though, security groups do not apply and CloudStack has no
knowledge of IPv6 being present.
