Nonroutable IPv6 link-local scope addresses must not be configured in any zone.
An XCCDF Rule
Description
IPv6 link-local scope addresses are not globally routable and must not be configured in any DNS zone. Like RFC1918 addresses, if a link-local scope address is inserted into a zone provided to clients, most routers will not forward this traffic beyond the local subnet.
