* Introduces two new optional attributes for Subnets: * ipv6_ra_mode * ipv6_address_mode Both attributes accept the following values: * dhcpv6-stateful * dhcpv6-stateless * slaac In addition to these values, additional behaviors are specified for when only one of the attributes is set. For example, a Neutron network that uses a physical router as a gateway, that transmits ICMPv6 Router Advertisement packets to configure hosts on the network will create Neutron Subnets that have ipv6_ra_mode *not* set, and ipv6_address_mode set to 'slaac' so that Neutron will calculate EUI64 addresses for each port assigned to the subnet, and not spawn a Dnsmasq process. These attributes maintain backwards compatability with the enable_dhcp Subnet attribute, by requiring a subnet with these attributes to also have enable_dhcp set to True.
