[Bug 1491690] [NEW] IPv6 Address Resolution protection support in Neutron.

 

Public bug reported:

Similar to IPv4 arp protection support (Bug#1274034), we would require
Neutron to add the necessary OVS rules to prevent ports attached to
agent from sending any icmpv6 Neighbor Advertisement messages that
contain an IPv6 address not belonging to the port.

For more details, please refer to "Figure 3. Attack against IPv6 Address Resolution"
