//
// Configures the containing network node using information provided by
// the network's global configurator module ~Ipv6NetworkConfigurator.
//
// ~Ipv6NetworkConfigurator only computes and remembers configuration data
// (assigned IPv6 addresses, static routes, etc), but doesn't configure the
// nodes' routing tables and interfaces accordingly. The actual configuration
// is carried out by this module, at network initialization time and also when
// the node restarts (i.e. after a shutdown or a crash.)
//
// This module is needed because of failure/restart scenarios:
// ~Ipv6NetworkConfigurator would not be able to configure the node after
// a restart, because being a global module, it doesn't know about node
// lifecycle events.
