Excellent scenario, and a simple solution:

The administrator needs to define 2 address scopes.

The control device has an address in scope 1.
The host has addresses in both scopes 1 and 2, as well as a global unicast address.
The DFZ host has an address of scope 2, and a global unicast address.

All requirements met.

Regards,
