What is a link-local address?? WAS: Re: JUNOS forwards IPv6 link-local packets

Any address withing FE80::/10 is a link local address, however when
you are constructing a link local address you sent bits [11..64]
to zero.  It's quite common for a specification to only use a subset
of the reserved space which is what happens here.
