 When setting IPv6 addresses, we should do a Duplicate Address Detection.

 Duplicate Address Detection goes as follows:

 Over ICMPv6

   * Report to MLD well known multicast group (type 143)
     * Announce that we are assigning an IP address via multicast.
   * Send Neighbor Solicitation from :: (type 135)
     * Let everyone in multicast group know which IP address we are
 assigning
   * Listen for Neighbor Advertisement (type 136)
     * Listen on the mutlicast group for neighbors on the requested IP
 address
   * Leave multicast group if a duplicate address is found (type 143)
