requirements of VIM-agnostic IPv6 functionality, including infrastructure layer and VNF
(VM) layer, and its gap analysis with OpenStack Neutron in Kilo Official Release.

-+=====================================+=========================+===============================================+
-|All topologies work in a multi-tenant|Yes |The IPv6 design is following the Neutron tenant|

-| | |DHCP network namespaces, while radvd is being |
-| | |used inside Neutron routers namespaces to |
-| | |provide full isolation between tenants. Tenant |

-+-------------------------------------+-------------------------+-----------------------------------------------+
-|IPv6 VM to VM only |Yes |It is possible to assign IPv6-only addresses to|
