Here's a snippet from the log that shows this error:

I've noticed this when the device blocks are dual stacked (i.e., EthernetII/IPv4/IPv6) AND have BGP (IPv4) activated. But ultimately this is likely caused by an improperly formatted IPv6 link-local address, with respect to RFC 4291. Please try modifying them as discussed in FAQ13067. If this does not resolve this error, please contact Technical Support at support@VIAVI.com (1-800-VIAVI).
Note: This apply time error first started occurring in STC 4.10.
