Hi Sridhar,

I’d recommend raising a genius/netvirt spec for this. ICMPv6 responder is a new 
feature and impacts pipeline so should go proper design review et al.

Regards,
Vishal.

Subject: [openflowplugin-dev] Review request - Support for ping6 in ODL

Hello Genius/OpenflowPlugin teams,

In order to enable tempest IPv6 scenario tests with ODL/Netvirt, ping6 support 
for the Neutron router interfaces has to be supported.
This is currently a missing gap, so we could not enable tempest IPv6 scenario 
tests so far.

I was looking at this use-case and figured out that we can support ping6 
similar to ping (in IPv4) by programming the necessary OVS flows that 
auto-respond to ping6 requests from the VMs.

Following are the five dependent patches that are required to be merged in 
GENIUS and OpenflowPlugin for this use-case.

I would appreciate if Openflowplugin and GENIUS teams take a look at the 
following dependent patches so that I can propose the necessary changes in 
Netvirt.

OpenflowPlugin patches:
1. Add Nicira extension support for matching IPv6 Src/Dst - 
https://git.opendaylight.org/gerrit/#/c/56969/
2. Bug 8535: Fix IPv6 OXMHeader Mask issue - 
https://git.opendaylight.org/gerrit/#/c/57694/

GENIUS patches:
1. Utility api to configure icmpv6 type - 
https://git.opendaylight.org/gerrit/#/c/57072/
2. Support for moving Src/Dest IPv6 addresses in NxRegMove action - 
https://git.opendaylight.org/gerrit/#/c/57027/
3. Support API that configures IPv6 address as sourceAddress - 
https://git.opendaylight.org/gerrit/#/c/57026/

Thank you,
--Sridhar.
