Comment 2 Bill Sanford 2015-08-13 14:59:04 UTC

I also added the test case to the external tracker to verify that this is the correct usage of the command.

Comment 3 Christophe Fergeau 2015-08-13 15:47:30 UTC

Not very familiar with ipv6, but 
qemu-kvm -spice port=3000,fe80::baca:3aff:fe79:2ade%p3p2
should be working?

No. The device identifier (%p3p2) only needs to be appended to a link-local address - e.g. in Bill's case:
/usr/libexec/qemu-kvm -spice port=3000,addr=fe80::baca:3aff:fe79:2ade%p3p2

Global address works in as-is form:
/usr/libexec/qemu-kvm -spice port=3000,addr=2620:52:0:133c:baca:3aff:fe79:2ade

Comment 5 David Jaša 2015-08-14 14:26:39 UTC

Bill does it work for you according to comment 4?

Comment 6 Bill Sanford 2015-08-14 15:29:29 UTC

It does not initialize at all, according to comment 4.

Please provide the exact command lines that you tried, this is working as expected on RHEL6.6/RHEL7/Fedora23 for me (as expected = what djasa explained in comment #4)

Comment 8 Pavel Grunt 2015-12-17 10:06:30 UTC

Bill, your address is not link-local so adding the device identifier / interface ID as a suffix will not work - explained in the comment 4.

If ipv6 does not work at all, please reopen the bug providing more info.

thanks

Comment 9 Bill Sanford 2016-01-19 14:24:48 UTC

When I see this without the local link, I will reopen.
