IPv6 Gap Analysis with Open Daylight Lithium
============================================

This section provides users with IPv6 gap analysis regarding feature requirement with
Open Daylight Lithium Official Release. The following table lists the use cases / feature
requirements of VIM-agnostic IPv6 functionality, including infrastructure layer and VNF
(VM) layer, and its gap analysis with Open Daylight Lithium Official Release.

|REST API support for IPv6 subnet creation in ODL      |Yes                     |Yes, it is possible to create IPv6 subnet in ODL using Neutron REST APIs.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                         |

When port information is queried, it displays IPv4 and IPv6 addresses. However, in Lithium Release, ODL net-virt provider does not support IPv6 feature, i.e. the actual functionality is missing. It would be available only in later release.|
