[libvirt] IPV6 and routing

If IPv6 is going to be useful in virtualization, then there
must be some "easy" way to have other systems understand
that the virtualization host is acting as a router for the
virtual IPv6 networks it runs. While being able to go
between the virtualization hosts and the virtual guests is
very useful, I do not consider this sufficient.
We programatically, on a per VM basis, set up our ebtables and
iptables rules at pmman.com (thus my 'ROADMAP' question
earlier this week). Under RHEL 6's (and thus CentOS') KVM
and libvirtd stock setup, there was a built-in filter as
provided by libvirtd install -- as I recall: a 'clean-traffic'
filter -- that we had to amend out, compared to prior xen
setups under the earlier RHEL variant
Have you dumped and examined the running rules affecting IPv6
traffic?
