pimd: allow resolving bsr via directly connected secondary address
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
This only matters to single hop nodes that are adjacent to the bsr. More common
with IPv6 where LL address is used in PIM as the primary address. If the BSR IP
happens to be an address on the same interface, the receiving pim router
rejects the BSR address because it expects the BSR IP to resolve via the LL address
even if we have a connected route for the same BSR IP subnet. Effectively, we want to
allow rpf to be resolved via secondary IPs with connected routes on the same interface,
and not limit them to primary addresses.
