Add explicit configuration for enabling IPv6-related flow installation
(IPv6 Neighbor Discovery related flow mods).
The default configuration is false (disabled).

This fixes ONOS-1146

The configurable parameters are:

 tools/package/etc/org.onosproject.provider.host.impl.HostLocationProvider.cfg
  - Enable host removal on port/device down events.
    (NOTE: not IPv6 related, added for completeness)
    hostRemovalEnabled = true
  - Enable using IPv6 Neighbor Discovery by the Host Location Provider.
    ipv6NeighborDiscovery = false

 tools/package/etc/org.onosproject.proxyarp.ProxyArp.cfg
  - Enable IPv6 Neighbor Discovery.
    ipv6NeighborDiscovery = false

NOTE: The above IPv6-related configuration has drawbacks,
partially because of some PacketService-related side effects.
Currently, we don't support enabling ipv6NeighborDiscovery
in one of the configuration files, and disabling it in another.
Enabling ipv6NeighborDiscovery in one configuration file is
practically equivalent to enabling it in both places.

ONOS : Open Network Operating System

What is ONOS?

ONOS is a new SDN network operating system designed for high availability, performance, scale-out.

Top-Level Features

  • High availability through clustering and distributed state management.
  • Scalability through clustering and sharding of network device control.
  • Performance that is good for a first release, and which has an architecture that will continue to support improvements.
  • Northbound abstractions for a global network view, network graph, and application intents.
  • Pluggable southbound for support of OpenFlow and new or legacy protocols.
  • Graphical user interface to view multi-layer topologies and inspect elements of the topology.
  • REST API for access to Northbound abstractions as well as CLI commands.
  • CLI for debugging.
  • Support for both proactive and reactive flow setup.
  • SDN-IP application to support interworking with traditional IP networks controlled by distributed routing protocols such as BGP.
  • IP-Optical use case demonstration.
