2002::/16 vs non 2002::/16 should be in the policy table.
This is the default prefer ipv6 policy table for FreeBSD
6.4-PRERELEASE. There is also a alternate prefer ipv4 policy
table that will be set if IPv6 is disabled.
Prefix Prec Label Use
::1/128 50 0 0
::/0 40 1 4997
2002::/16 30 2 0
::/96 20 3 0
