Description of problem: The expectation when Boot protocol is set to "None" in host network settings in engine is that no IP will be configured on the interface, forcing IP traffic from this device to go through switch. This expectation is valid for IPv4 but not for IPv6, when there is an IPv6 router sending RAs, the device will pick up autoconfigured address. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): RHEV 3.5 vdsm-4.16.26-1.el7ev.x86_64 How reproducible: always Steps to Reproduce: 1. set up a bridge device with "None" boot protocol on a network with working IPv6 stateless configuration 2. look up the device on the host: ip a s dev NETWORK_NAME 3. Actual results: 12: BRIDGE_NAME: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc noqueue state UP link/ether 78:e7:d1:e0:29:3a brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff inet6 <GLOBAL_PREFIX>:7ae7:d1ff:fee0:293a/64 scope global dynamic valid_lft 2522562sec preferred_lft 535362sec inet6 fe80::7ae7:d1ff:fee0:293a/64 scope link valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever Expected results: no IP configuration will be present, v4 or v6 Additional info: This bug might have some security implications - CCing Petr
