Description Yann Droneaud 2011-06-08 10:30:27 UTC

Description of problem:

I'm trying to open address 
2a02:3d0:630:12:230:48ff:fe8b:884a (one of the IPv6 address of 
www.worldipv6day.org)

I've typed in the URL entry
- 2a02:3d0:630:12:230:48ff:fe8b:884a
- http://2a02:3d0:630:12:230:48ff:fe8b:884a/

For each version, I'm redirected to a famous web search engine.
  
Actual results:

A web search is done through a famous web search engine.

Expected results:

Opening a website.

IPv6 addresses must entered using square bracket:

- [2a02:3d0:630:12:230:48ff:fe8b:884a]
- http://[2a02:3d0:630:12:230:48ff:fe8b:884a]/
