Static routes in IPv6 should not point to multipoint interfaces
unless you have static layer 3 to layer 2 resolution for the final
destination. This means when you configure a default IPv6 route via the
"ipv6 route ::/0" command you should point it to a next-hop instead of
an interface, unless the interface is point-to-point. It's based on the
logic of how route recursion and layer 2 resolution occurs on multipoint
interfaces.
