Hi Wido,

In current setup,  each Cloudstack have own VR, so in this new  IPv6 subnet
allocation , each VR (which have Frr) will need to have peering with ISP
router (and either BGP or Static Route) , and there is 1000 Acocunts,  it
will 1000 BGP session with ISP router ,  Am I right for this ? or I
understand wrong .

I understand IPv6 is different then IPv4, and in IPv6 it suppose each
devices have own IP. It just how to realize in easy way.
