yes,it should get Ipv6 addr advertised by cloudstack VR. @Alexblue.com we need to make sure IPv6 is enabled in the storagefs vm (Ipv6 is disabled by default in systemvm template as far as I know), and proper firewall rules are applied. > @Wido den Hollander @Wei ZhouHow much effort do you guys thing it would it > take to add support to VirtioFS?

However I do not know a strong use case of it. maybe @wido can advise ?
