For IPv6, the VRRP protocol requires that the link-local address is
virtual; it *must* be present in the list of virtual addresses a VRRP
node announces.
But Junos does indeed generate one automatically for you; you don't
need to add a virtual-link-local-address stanza. And the link-local
address should show up when you run 'show vrrp':
bellman@Bluegrass2> show vrrp
Interface State Group VR state VR Mode Timer Type Address
irb.214 up 1 master Active A 0.461 lcl 2001:6b0:17:180::3
vip
fe80::200:5eff:fe00:201
vip 2001:6b0:17:180::1
(Unfortunately I don't have any immediate ideas of why VRRP for IPv6
doesn't work for you, or why you don't see the outgoing packets using
'monitor traffic'. When I test on a couple of QFX:es and EX4600:s, I
can see both outgoing and incoming VRRP packets.)
