@susantjasinski Can you add a description?

I started working on network WebUI page changes for supporting Both REST and Redfish.
At present WebUI Network page data is formatted to common JSON data which can be used by Both Redfish and REST. With that change, REST/dbus based Network page works fine (IPv4). Below commit has Redfish based network page support( View is done and Change settiungs is pending).

I am also working on IPv6 Support to network page( Both Rest/Dbus and Redfish). If any specific requirements in IPv6, please document here.

@apuli1 please review the design we are currently working on

Open questions:

• Is the relationship between VLAN and interfaces correct?
• Are adding a DNS server and adding an IP address separate actions with a single intention or are they independent of each other?
• Is there a use case for combining static and dynamic IP Addresses / DNS Servers?

@jandraa @gtmills I use the newest openbmc, and set ipv6 address.
How to use curl command to send IP in IPV6 format？Can you show me an example?
