When bgp peers with ipv6 link local addresses, it may receive a BGP update with next-hop containing both LL and GA information. By default, nexthop tracking applies to GA, and ignores presence of LL, when both addresses are present. This is a problem for resolving GA as next-hop as the next-hop information can be solved by using the LL address only. The solution consists in defaulting the nexthop ipv6 choice to LL when available, and moving back to GA if a route-map is locally configured at inbound.
