Thank you Andreas. I have some comments.

IPv4 or IPv6 `Prefix`, allowing for the free selection of `NetworkInterface` IPs. In the IPv4 realm, it is common
practice to use a local, non-publicly routable IP range, with internet connectivity ensured via a `NATGateway` for
egress and a `LoadBalancer` for ingress traffic. However, this approach is not applicable to IPv6.
Here we need to ensure that either a unique local IPv6 address is being used (`fd00::/8`) or an IP or `Prefix` is derived

@MalteJ Do we want to support this non-routable range ? In the same VNI, the VMs can communicate with each other.

Loadbalancer can be also dual-stack on this API level ? I mean, the LB can be ipv4 only, ipv6 only and dual-stack.
On metalnet level each ip family will need its own metalnet object but this detail can be abstracted away on this level ?

What about NAT64 ?
Do we need to present it on this API level ? @MalteJ
We already have NAT Gateway object with an ipv4 address, right ? so in case NICs get assigned to that
NAT Gateway, they will simply use the IPv4 NAT Address for their DNS64 resolved targets ?
No need to mark the NAT Gateway with some ipv6 related info on this API level ?

@MalteJ MalteJ added this to the ORA 2024.Q1 - IPv6 Support milestone Mar 2, 2024
