Bug Description

When we set up a router between two IPv6-only subnets, the router fails to forward the traffic from one network to the other.

After investigations in neutron's l3_agent source code (on git), it seems that you forgot to set ipv6 forwarding to 1 with sysctl after you set it for ipv4.

The attached patch corrects this issue.
