Note: This bug is displayed in read-only format because the product is no longer active in Red Hat Bugzilla.
RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Comment 3 tingting zheng 2014-11-20 12:16:00 UTC
The bug can still be reproduced on:
virt-manager-1.1.0-7.el7.noarch

So I reopened the bug,would you pls help to check whether the patch is included in virt-manager code.

Comment 4 Giuseppe Scrivano 2014-11-20 12:56:01 UTC
it seems that the patch is not enough.  I've proposed another fix:

https://www.redhat.com/archives/virt-tools-list/2014-November/msg00117.html

Comment 7 CongDong 2014-11-21 09:26:32 UTC
I can reproduce with:
virt-manager-1.1.0-7.el7.noarch

Verify:
virt-manager-1.1.0-8.el7.noarch

Steps:
1. on client host
ifconfig eth0 inet6 add 2004:db8:ac10:fe01::2/64
2. on server 1
ifconfig eth0 inet6 add 2004:db8:ac10:fe01::3/64
3. on server 2
ifconfig eth0 inet6 add 2004:db8:ac10:fe01::3/64

4.  Launch virt-manager and Connect to a server1 ("File ->Add Connection ->Choose Qemu/xen for Hypervisor --> choose 'Remote tunnel over SSH' -->Enter the ipv6 server  address([2004:db8:ac10:fe01::3])  you want to connect.-->Click 'Connect'") and server 2

Result:
connection name of server 1 and 2 on virt-manager are different:
2004:db8:ac10:fe01::3(QEMU)
2004:db8:ac10:fe01::5(QEMU)

Not "2004:db8"


As the result, move to VERIFIED.
