I am testing IPv6 network using proxmox VE like this.

2 guest OS get RA packet and set IPv6 GUA automatically.
but host OS (proxmox VE) can not set IPv6 GUA. Only link
local address set like this.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------
# ifconfig vmbr0
vmbr0     Link encap:Ethernet  HWaddr 00:22:15:7e:07:0b
          inet addr:192.168.1.241  Bcast:192.168.1.255  Mask:255.255.255.0
          inet6 addr: fe80::222:15ff:fe7e:70b/64 Scope:Link
          UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST  MTU:1500  Metric:1
          RX packets:6845 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0
          TX packets:3491 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0

          RX bytes:818346 (799.1 KiB)  TX bytes:743148 (725.7 KiB)
----------------------------------------------------------------------------

My /etc/network/interfaces is here.

--------------------------------------
# network interface settings
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback

iface eth0 inet manual

iface eth1 inet manual

auto vmbr0
iface vmbr0 inet static
        address  192.168.1.241
        netmask  255.255.255.0
        gateway  0.0.0.0
        bridge_ports eth0
        bridge_stp off
        bridge_fd 0
