Hello, > We probably should just add option to ignore link-local BGP next hops ... I would also like to see a configuration option for this. At the moment we use the "gw = bgp_next_hop" workaround. In our situation the upstream provider has a redundant setup, where the session is moved between two routers. Both have the same global IPv6 address, but different link-lokal addresses.
So when the providers switches to the other node the routes have the old link-lokal from the other side and then the routes are not working anymore. With the "gw = bgp_next_hop" workaround we have fixed this. Best regards, Oliver
