When a client send a Router Solicit message on an interface without an IP address - it should use the `::` (undefined address) as SourceAddr. (See: https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc4861#page-18)
4.1. Router Solicitation Message Format < .. snip .. > IP Fields: Source Address An IP address assigned to the sending interface, or the unspecified address if no address is assigned to the sending interface.
When OVN respond to this Router Solicit it uses the `::` (undefined address) as the DestinationAddr. When comparint to radvd behaviour it will instead use the ff02::1 (All nodes on-link multicast addresses afict from rfc4291).
It looks like OVN is always sending the response to the source address of RA Solicit, I belive there should be a condition to check that the RA Solicit used `::` because interface does not have an address, and in that case the RA Advertise should instead have destination ff02::1.
Example from PCAP when OVN is doing RAs:
