hello,

just to inform, maybe someone from /// will read it and put on todo list.

This is when everything is ok:
====================================
  interface vlan730
   ipv6 address 2a01:1d8:ffff:fffd::2/127

   neighbor 2a01:1d8:ffff:fffd::3 external
====================================

but, if we revese this configuration:
====================================
  interface vlan730
   ipv6 address 2a01:1d8:ffff:fffd::3/127

[bgp1]R0(config-bgp)# neighbor 2a01:1d8:ffff:fffd::2 external
% neighbor address belongs to a local interface
====================================

Not all of upstreams will agree to reverse addressing.
Our node - SE600, SEOS-12.1.1.5p2-Release
Upstream node - Juniper MX480

This should be corrected to follow http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc6164

Regards,
Marcin
