Routers often use link local addresses.
Which can not be used in commands.
Of course they can. They are perfectly valid IPv6 addresses.
Firefox refuses to accept them. Old bug.
a) You never said anything about Firefox before that. Apparently, when you say "commands" we all have to read "Firefox". b) You never showed any example of a command that fails with the actual address you used. While you have been shown the example of a command that correctly works with IPv6 LL address.
I said firefox as an example. Yes, I know that ping works with a different syntax, that is a pain. -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R. (from 15.4 x86_64 at Telcontar)
