Three interfaces will be automatically created using this switch layout :
\texttt{eth0.0} (vlan0), \texttt{eth0.1} (vlan1) and \texttt{eth0.2} (vlan2).
You can then assign those interfaces to a custom network configuration name
like \texttt{lan}, \texttt{wan} or \texttt{dmz} for instance.

and uses ebtables to filter anything that is not IPv6 on the bridge.
IPv6 static addressing is also supported using a similar setup as
IPv4 but with the \texttt{ip6} prefixing (when applicable).
