 Description: IPv6 Support and Management to Slices
 ipv6 nodemanager plugin
-Version: 0.5
+Version: 0.7
 Author: Guilherme Sperb Machado <gsm@machados.org>
+
+Requirements:
+* The 'sliversipv6prefix' tag must have this format:
+  ipv6_address/prefix -- e.g., 2002:1000::1/64
+* The prefix specified on 'sliversipv6prefix' tag must be at least 64
+  It should vary between 1 and 64, since it is the minimum amount of bits to
+  have native IPv6 auto-configuration.
+* The ipv6_address on 'sliversipv6prefix' tag can be any valid IPv6 address.
+  E.g., 2002:1000:: or 2002:1000::1
+* It is the node manager/admin responsibility to properly set the IPv6 routing,
+  since slivers should receive/send any kind of traffic.
