<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:12.0pt">Pinging interface endpoints for debugging and monitoring, being able to see which interface is used in a traceroute, stuff like that. Routing protocols can work perfectly fine without global addresses, but netadmins
have a harder time with just link locals :-) But true: it is something that I have tested in the lab, and it does reduce the attack surface of the network a bit.<br>

<p class="MsoNormal">Is it actually that useful to see 50% entered london from nyc on interface nyc1-0.lon2.core and 50% on nyc1-1.lon2.core? I believe in theory the egress interface is theoretically shown in traceroute which would be useful if that actually
happened, but i'm not sure the ingress interface you see in practice is as useful once the packet has reached that hop?</p>

<p class="MsoNormal">Although I see your point about being able to ping eth3-0.lon2.core and eth3-1.lon2.core from nyc and have each point to a specific link to check them independently. I had considered that if you were testing this link you would do it from
nyc using eg fe80::2%lon1, however doing that without logging in to the router is useful.</p>
