Hi, I’m OpenStack Neutron developer. Since some time we have proposed spec [1] about Metadata over IPv6 in IPv6 only networks. This spec proposes to use fe80::a9fe:a9fe IP address as it is equivalent of 169.254.169.254 in IPv6 link-local subnet.
According to [2] I know already that cloud-init can be configured to use any metadata urls with “metadata_urls” so we can use such IPv6 address (or any other) and can be configured to be used in cloud-init on guest vms. But as cloud-init is one of the biggest users of Metadata service, I would like to ask cloud-init community what do You think about it and if this will work for You. Any feedback here or in the spec's review will be appreciated :) [1] https://review.opendev.org/#/c/315604/ [2] https://github.com/canonical/cloud-init/blob/master/cloudinit/sources/DataSourceOpenStack.py#L59 — Slawek Kaplonski Senior software engineer Red Hat -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~cloud-init Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~cloud-init More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
