      We created two slices and got same ipv6 ip addresses allocated to both slices. Here are the slice and ip informations
      slice 1)
      ID d9611402-72e6-4ced-a681-3836b894105d
      Name ServiceXSlice
      networks

      Slice 2)

      Notice above that NET2 of the ServiceXSlice has gateway ip 2602:fcfb:1d:1::1, which is the same as the NET3 of the ServiceXSlice1. The two network service are of different types, one is FABNetV6, the other is FABNetv6Ext. Similarly, the ips allocated to node interfaces are also duplicated.

      Please let me know if more details are needed.

      Thanks,

        Thank you for sharing this and helping us make the testbed better. It was a bug. A fix has been deployed. Could you please delete the slice which has FABNetv6Ext and recreate it again?

        Thanks,

          Hi Komal,

          Thanks for getting a fix in so quickly. It seems I still have some issues(could be a different issue)

          I created the slice and then tried to call the change_public_ip function. Then the whole network service disappeared from the slice. One thing to note is that I use this network3.change_public_ip(ipv6=list(map(str,network3_available_ips[0:100])))

          instead of

          network3.change_public_ip(ipv6=[str(network3_available_ips[0])]).

          My intention is to change_public_ip for 100 address instead of just one.  Since the ipv6 parameter is a list,  I assume this would work.

          Here’s the slice information.

            Hello Fengping,

            Thanks you for sharing your observation. I looked at your slice. The Network Service in your slice is in Closed state as NSO failed to allow 100 external IP addresses. Enclosing the snapshot of the error below.

            Also, I confirmed with the Network Team and found that we have an upper limit of 90 public IPs on a FabNetV6Ext. Their recommendation is to create an additional slice if you need more than 90 public IPs. Hope this helps!

            
err=failed lease update- all units failed priming: Exception during modify for unit: 4a338812-470d-41fc-a510-145dfd775816 Playbook has failed tasks: NSO exists invalid params. path = /ncs:services/l3rt:l3rt{NET3-4a338812-470d-41fc-a510-145dfd775816}/external-access/permit-ipv6{100}

            Thanks,
            Komal

              Hi Komal,

              Thanks for the details. I just randomly picked the number 100. I believe 90 address should be enough for my use case.

              Thank you so much for getting this figure out so quickly.

              Have a good weekend!
              Fengping
