You can configure IPv6 address as an update-source.
Starting from XCO 3.4.0 and SLX 20.5.30 and later, tenant BGP peer-groups support both IPv4 and IPv6 addresses as an update-source. The feature is supported on the following platforms: Extreme 8520, SLX 9540 or 9640, SLX 9150 or 9250, SLX 9740, Extreme 8820, and Extreme 8720.
Note
XCO versions below 3.4.0 and SLX versions below 20.5.3 support update-source attribute for tenant BGP peer-groups, but only IPv4 address can be configured as update-source.
