I had a longstanding dialog with Apple regarding BTMM and setting IPv6 to "Link-local only" was the very first suggestion they made. Unfortunately that didn't help, neither did anything else they recommended, until finally an OS X point update fixed it. You can find that sordid tale elsewhere in ASC (this link should work).
As I recall the problem existed in each early release of ML and Mavericks and it took a couple of updates to fix it each time.
Over the course of troubleshooting Apple instructed me to hard reset the Extremes / TCs and make no other configuration changes, which left it at "automatic" and that's where it remains.
OS X 10.9.2 or 3 fixed it, so the KB article may no longer be applicable. I'm sure that Apple would still make "Link-local only" their first suggestion again though 😝
Sorry to thread-jack. Thanks for the explanation.
