I think you simply do not understand the issue. Please read the bugzilla instead, I did not write it, perhaps you understand them better than me.
This is going off-topic, apologies. "Firefox does not appear to support IPv6 link-local addresses". I think I understand the issue perfectly well.
It has 45 entries. For instance: 34, 37, 29, 10, 17, 32
This morning, I did quickly peruse those comments - they are all from people claiming they _need_ this functionality. In my opinion, they are ignoring the real issue - a misconfigured ipv6 network. Until the network is given a prefix, e.g. 2001:db8:1234:5678, it really is not a functioning ipv6 network. Specifically for your printer issue: run a radvd somewhere, with this config (/etc/radvd.conf) : interface eth0 { AdvSendAdvert on; AdvManagedFlag on; AdvOtherConfigFlag on; too clients { fe80:: .... your printers LL; }; prefix fc00:1234:5678:9000::/64 { AdvOnLink on; AdvAutonomous on; AdvRouterAddr off; }; }; With this, your printer is the only device that is permitted to auto-configure itself. Permitting other devices would only cause problems when you don't have any real ipv6 connectivity. I am assuming your printer does not have any desire to "phone home". The minute you start radvd, your printer will auto-configure and assign itself an address on fc00:1234:5678:9000. Grab the LL address from the label, ignoring the fe80:: part and append it to the prefix. You can now access it from your browser: http://[fc00:1234:5678:9000:21e:bff:fe08:4ccb] Or you add it to /etc/hosts and use 'bilbo6': http://bilbo6 -- Per Jessen, Zürich (15.6°C) http://www.dns24.ch/ - your free DNS host, made in Switzerland. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
