Another way to load permanently a kernel module is to use the 'modconf' 
utility, which has the same result, maybe in a more user-friendly way. 
You must use it while the desired module is not loaded, as modconf will 
try and fail to load the module if it's already loaded.

Then you can use /etc/network/interfaces to specify some IPv6 static 
addresses at startup.
