[Bug 1369767] [NEW] Fixed IPs that do not match EUI64 should be rejected for IPv6 SLAAC subnets

 

Public bug reported:

When a port is created on a subnet that is configured for IPv6 SLAAC,
that port's IP address will be automatically generated (to a pre-
determined value) using the EUI64 address algorithm, based on the
subnet's IPv6 prefix and the port's MAC address. Therefore, any port
create requests that include a fixed IPv6 address that does not match
the expected IPv6 EUI64 address should be rejected.
