Abishek Subramanian (absubram) wrote : Move ipv6_gateway L3 config to CLI

The ipv6 router BP (https://blueprints.launchpad.net/neutron/+spec/ipv6-router) added a new L3 agent config called ipv6_gateway wherein an admin can configure the IPv6 LLA of the upstream physical router, so that the neutron virtual router has a default V6 gateway route to the upstream router.

This solution is however not scalable when there are multiple external routers per L3 agent.
Per review comments - https://review.openstack.org/#/c/156283/42/etc/l3_agent.ini
It is better to move this config to the CLI.

This change aims to make this exact change by updating the router_update API so that the neutron router-gateway-set CLI will now have a new option to set an ipv6_gateway.
