Thus on a host with only IPv4 connectivity this will fail. There are cases where we are faced with several alternatives for both source and destination address, such as: * IPv4 vs IPv6 * link-local vs. global-scope address (both IPv4 and IPv6) We need to devise some strategy for proper selection of source and destination address. For inspiration how this problem can be approached see * http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc3484 (I don't think it's necessary to implement *exactly* this way, i.e. we don't necessarily need a configurable policy table).",enhancement,accepted,major,,helenos/unspecified,mainline,,,,,,
