eos_designs

Use case example

I need to be able to set an IPv6 Address on an uplink interface for BGP connectivity.

Addition of ipv6_addresses to l3_interfaces.

Describe alternatives you have considered

Currently, setting the IPv6 via custom structured configs or raw_eos_cli is the only alternative.

I would also love to have this feature. We can't use l3_interfaces because of it.

Not sure why they have not responded but was able to do a work around:

 - interfaces: [ Ethernet1/1 ]
             nodes: [ borderA ]
             description: L3PEER-I
             mtu: 9174
             enabled: false
             ip_addresses: [ 1.1.1.1/30 ]
             # ospf:
             #   enabled: true
             #   point_to_point: True
             structured_config:
               ipv6_address: 2001::1/64
               speed: forced 40gfull
               access_group_in: SANITY-IN

The structured config here is very handy for any 'ethernet' eos cli

can the structured config be done if there are multiple devices in 'nodes'?
