[Request]: full RFC-compliant IPv6 #1034

@certuna

Description

@certuna

Feature or enhancement request details

As containers are their own VMs, you'd expect they behave as any other RFC-compliant Linux machine, i.e.:

  • receive Router Assignments RFC 4862
  • receive RDNSS RFC 8106
  • generate 1 opaque stable SLAAC address RFC 7217
  • generate 1 SLAAC privacy address RFC 4941
  • generate a link-local address RFC 4291
  • use PREF64 if advertised RFC 8781
  • SLAAC is mandatory, DHCPv6 is optional, so maybe not high priority, but still RFC8415

Manual configuration of IPv6 should really be a last-resort fallback, not the default.

Is there a roadmap for this?
