Strongwan + Windows VPN IKEv2 + IPv6
Problem Statement
-----------------
The Windows native VPN client does not configure the default IPv6 route through the tunnel, even if the negociated remote traffic selector is ::/0.
Causes
------
Windows sends router solicitations and awaits router advertisement from the other side. To this end, it uses link-local unicast and multicast addresses, just like a machine would on a broadcast-capable link (e.g. Ethernet).
