Sean M. Collins 2a4e50caea Create new IPv6 attributes for Subnets
* 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.

# -- Welcome!

You have come across a cloud computing network fabric controller. It has identified itself as "Neutron." It aims to tame your (cloud) networking!

# -- External Resources:

The homepage for Neutron is: http://launchpad.net/neutron . Use this site for asking for help, and filing bugs. Code is available on github at <http://github.com/openstack/neutron>.

The latest and most in-depth documentation on how to use Neutron is available at: <http://docs.openstack.org>. This includes:

Neutron Administrator Guide http://docs.openstack.org/trunk/openstack-network/admin/content/

Neutron API Reference: http://docs.openstack.org/api/openstack-network/2.0/content/

The start of some developer documentation is available at: http://wiki.openstack.org/NeutronDevelopment

For help using or hacking on Neutron, you can send mail to <mailto:openstack-dev@lists.openstack.org>.
