[Bug 1355195] [NEW] ipv6 router does not set ip forwarding

 

Public bug reported:

When we set up a router between two IPv6-only subnets, the router fails
to forward the traffic from one network to the other.

After investigations in neutron's l3_agent source code (on git), it
seems that you forgot to set ipv6 forwarding to 1 with sysctl after you
set it for ipv4.

The attached patch corrects this issue.
