--- Comment #9 from rkoberman@gmail.com ---
(In reply to Paul G Webster from comment #8)
That would explain it. I am very surprised that Linux does not use the
link-local address for routing information. That was one of the main reason=
 for
the link-local implementation in IPv6.

Can someone confirm that Linux does not use link-local as the default NDP
communication connection?

Yes, ebtables (on linux) should always allow link-local. No, all routing is=
 not
over link-local. Protocols that communicate to non-adjacent nodes (e.g. BGP)
cannot use link-local.

Glad you tracked this down. You saved the next guy problems.
