Description

In the IPv6 world it is completely valid to use link local addresses for gateways. We currently do not allow those.

We already added some link local support for dhcp6 as we pick up the link local default from the route table.

We need to make sure we add the route into the route table with the interface scope added. e.g. fe80::1%igb3
