You must attach a router to the network when ipv6_address_mode is set to "slaac" for instances to get addresses. You specified via the API that you want openstack to use stateless auto address configuration, and that requires a router to transmit RAs.

Instance did not obtain IPv6 address 2. default gw is not set Expected results: ================= The instance should have IPv6 address a default gw configured.
