Bug Description
Hi,
avahi-daemon of 14.04 is currently breaking some of my services, e.g. squid-apt-proxy.
For security reasons, I have restricted access to services on my server machine in my LAN to link-local ipv6 addresses, i.e. FE80::
At the same time, I have a router advertising an official IPv6 prefix, so my server machine has both an official and a link-local ipv6 address. Unfortunately, avahi-daemon advertises the official address, thus having all clients run against fireall and application security rules.
Since avahi is limited to the link anyways (except when using a bonjour proxy), this does not make sense. It should advertise the link-local ipv6 address only (or at least should have a configuration option).
regards
Hadmut
