File lib/vdsm/network/configurators/ifcfg.py:

Line 100:             self.runningConfig.save()
Line 101:             self.runningConfig = None
Line 102: 
Line 103:     def configureBridge(self, bridge, **opts):

> Consistency is preserved: If there is no IPv6 address, IPv6 is disabled.. T
By such a rule, non-top level devices that would "naturally" get an IPv6LL 
address would actually be subjected to disable_ipv6 regardless of (the 
network's) configuration.

If we manually removed a bridge, its host port would not be directly usable for 
IPv6 without manually re-enabling IPv6. This is bad.

I want disable_ipv6 to be consistent in the chain, either disable_ipv6 
everything, or nothing. The restoration code does exactly this and I like it.
Line 105:             enable_ipv6(bridge.name)
Line 106:         self.configApplier.addBridge(bridge, **opts)
Line 107:         ifdown(bridge.name)
Line 108:         if bridge.port:
