You could (as root):

	1. Run "nmcli connections show" and find the UUID of the VPN
	connection you want to bugger.

	2. Run "nmcli connection edit <UUID>" to edit the connection.

	3. Enter "set ipv6.method link-local" at the "nmcli>" prompt to
	change it to link-local.

	4. Type "save" at the "nmcli>" prompt to save the updated
	connection.

	5. Type "quit" at the "nmcli>" prompt to exit the editor.

That oughta do it. And no, the GUI doesn't offer this setting that I can
find. Both IPV4 and IPV6 default to "method: auto".
