  • remove dependency on ifconfig by using ip instead
  • disable IPv6 in veth interfaces used for testing

Use the ip command instead of ifconfig when disabling ARP on an interface.
This removes the dependency on ifconfig, which is not installed by default
in many distributions.

Disable IPv6 in the veth interfaces created by the pktio_env script
to get rid of the noise caused by IPv6 stack. This makes debugging more
convenient. ARP was already disabled, but not before the interface was
brought up. Change the ordering for better silence by bringing the
interface up after ARP and IPv6 have been disabled.
