> Currently a 169.254.0.0/16 address is used for communication between the 
> (KVM) hypervisor and a System VM.
> The address is provided through a socket to the SSVM on startup.
> This adds additional complexity since such an address needs to be recorded in 
> the database.
> IPv6 provides the Link-Local address starting with fe80:: where it is 
> calculated based on the MAC-address.
> This address could be used to communicate with the SSVM without any prior 
> communication with it. The Hypervisor knows the MAC address of the SSVM and 
> thus it knows which address the SSVM will obtain.
> On this address a provisioning daemon could run instead of the current 'patch 
> via socket' scripts.
> Over this address the SSVM could even expose a complete REST-full API which 
> can be used to talk to the SSVM.
> Using the IPv6 link-local address would be the first step to IPv6 in the SSVM.
