We should apply the following order for locators in Hello messages:

  • IpV6 global
  • IpV4 global
  • IpV6 unique local
  • IpV4 private
  • IpV6 link local
  • IpV4 link local

Right now IpV6 unique local and link local addresses are not differentiated and all go before the IpV4 private addresses. This leads in some situations to try an IpV6 link local address before an IpV4 private address and fail where it could have worked faster.
