=== Bootstrap checks now apply to link-local addresses
7+
8+
Previously when Elasticsearch was bound to localhost, Elasticsearch would bind
9+
to any address on the loopback device. This included link-local addresses on the
10+
loopback device such as `fe80::1%lo0` on macOS. Starting in 6.1.2, Elasticsearch
11+
will now only bind to loopback addresses on the loopback device. Because of the
12+
previous behavior, Elasticsearch would skip the bootstrap checks if bound to a
13+
link-local address. Now that Elasticsearch no longer binds to such addresses
14+
when binding to localhost, the bootstrap checks now apply to link-local
15+
addresses.
