Description of problem: When using SLAAC for IPv6 its possible that introspection could fail. A link local address is a valid address on an IPv6 network when we are using SLAAC instead of DHCPv6. The current interface validation bypass link local address and fails the introspection.
Assigning to Alistair for verification. Thanks!
This made it into 16.1.2 compose
