[Bug 1925396] [NEW] With dibbler retirement, neutron needs a new IPv6 prefix delegation driver

 

Public bug reported:

The dibbler IPv6 prefix delegation client and server were retired last
year and it is currently unmaintained.  Unfortunately neutron uses
dibbler-client for its default prefix delegation driver and has no other
options.  As distros start to remove it this could become an issue, so a
suitable replacement will need to be developed.  Creating this bug as a
placeholder so the issue can be tracked and found by others, but more
work is required to determine what options we have.
