Thanks for working on router advertisements!  It will be helpful to have
a more complete implementation of IPv6.

Do you think that "keep-local" is the best name for this feature?  To
me, the name "local-only" sounds more descriptive.

Usually, in documentation, we would write ovn-controller inside
<code>...</code> instead of plain, e.g. here:

Thanks,

Ben.
