If you have 2 IPv6 addresses on the same interface on the primary, then
the NOTIFY message over IPv6 may be originating from the wrong IPv6
address. See below.

NSD binds to this address for answering queries, but when it
*originates* a NOTIFY message, it does not use this address. It may be
using the other address. See below for how to solve it.

Add "outgoing-interface: 2a0a:2b40::4:140" here. This allows NSD to send
NOTIFY messages from the address that the secondary is expecting.
