Hi Sean,

I have tried to use different symbols in networking interface name in Linux. I have added a comment to https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8071458

I am able to use symbols: "-", "+", "=", "#", "@".
I was UNABLE to use: "?", "~", "$", "*", "!", "[", "(", "&", "^", "|", "/", ":" and "\".

My network interface name in Linux is now "eth0.1_-+=#@55" (used "ifconfig" command).

Konstantin,

can you hold off pushing this fix to jdk8u for the moment ? It's a P4 and could have behavioural consequences (something we try and avoid in update releases). I see JDK-8071458 was logged to track IPv6 scope specifications. Let's see how this soaks into JDK 9 over coming days and let's see how JDK-8071458 progresses.

regards,
Sean.
