Description Andre-John Mas 2008-01-18 20:21:47 PST 
If I try connecting to my web server, on my local network, which is running Apache 2 with IPv6, the following fails:

http://[fe80::230:65ff:fed6:b164%en0]/

Yet at the same time, from the command line:

telnet -6 "fe80::230:65ff:fed6:b164%en0" 80

connects. In the connected session, typing:

GET /

results in a returned page.

This either looks like the parsing is failing or the handling of the parsed address is a failing.

RFC 2732 does not seem to cover this, but RFC 4007 does. 

An additional description is listed in the following Wikipedia page in the section Zone indicies:
