IP addresses use CIDR notation, gateways are optional but need an IP of the same type specified.
+
The special string 'dhcp' can be used for IP addresses to use DHCP, in which case no explicit gateway should be provided.
-For IPv6 the special string 'auto' can be used to use stateless autoconfiguration.
+SLAAC is not supported by cloud-init but at least netplan activates SLAAC when selecting 'dhcp' so it should work with up-to-date netplan versions.
+
