From 6b3ae80a63e47f6e97d68a1ddd520e3509e62821 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: YOSHIFUJI Hideaki Date: Wed, 21 Dec 2005 22:58:01 +0900 Subject: [PATCH] [IPV6]: Don't select a tentative address as a source address. A tentative address is not considered "assigned to an interface" in the traditional sense (RFC2462 Section 4). Don't try to select such an address for the source address.
