IPv6 Source Address Selection
When BGP initiates a TCP connection to a peer, it selects a source IPv6
address. When the user has configured a source interface (using neighbor
update-source), the source address is taken from this interface. When the
peer's IPv6 address is a link local address, the local interface used to reach the
peer is configured (in neighbor remote-as) and the source address is taken
rom this interface.
If the neighbor address is a link local address, BGP selects a link local address
as the source address. Otherwise, BGP selects a local address in the same
subnet as the neighbor's address. If no such address is found, BGP selects the
first active global IPv6 address on the source interface.
