I've discovered the reason - the link local address may be assigned to multiple interfaces, so to use it, you need to specify which interface.
Actually, the computer cannot know which interface a link local address is on, unless it's somehow told. In the case of routers, the router will announce itself and the computer will know which interface it's connected to. So, if you're manually doing something, such as ping, you have to specify the interface. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
