I have been doing some testing and dnsmasq is capable of handling the service currently provided by radvd. To implement this in dnsmasq requires the following:
if an IPv6 dhcp-range is specified, then add: enable-ra
if no IPv6 dhcp-range is specified, then add: dhsp-range=<IPv6-subnet>,ra-only
Tested. The second one will work with basic dnsmasq-2.6.3. The first one and dhcp-range itself only works with dnsmasq-2.64 (when released) or dnsmasq-2.63+patches.
Since dnsmasq-2.48 does not support IPv6 dhcp but does handle IPv6 for dns and CentOS 6 does include radvd, I also propose that a libvirtd.conf option be added. If the option is not present or set off, then radvd is used. If the option is set on, then dnsmasq is used.
I think this should rather be handled by configure script (perhaps with an additional option if needed). Otherwise, I agree with the plan. Jirka
