No, the scenario this came from is the following: A server with a public ipv6 address, A vm on this server with another public ipv6 address, connected to the outside via a bridge on the server. Server-side: ip link add br0 type bridge ip address add fe80::1 dev br0 ip link set dev br0 up ip rourte add dead:beef:aaaa:aaaa::1/68 dev br0 VM-side: set up with virt-manager to use bridge br0 ip a add dead:beef:aaaa:aaaa::1 dev eth0 ip l set dev eth0 up ip r add default via fe80::1 dev eth0 So fe80::1%eth0 is the address of the bridge seen from the vm, the redacted address is my vms public ipv6 address. I admit, not the simplest test setup, but this has no influence on netcfg not accepting <address>%<zone_id> type addresses Cheers, Michael
