Public bug reported: There are certain workloads that require the ability to define IPv4 Link Local addresses dynamically, as defined in RFC3927.
The openvswitch_firewall service allows for IPv6 link local addresses (likely because they are deterministic), but does not account for IPv4 Link Local addresses. Without support of this, workloads that have not yet made the transition to IPv6 support won't be able to run with the openvswitch_firewall. ** Affects: neutron Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Yahoo!
