Dear inet6 guys,
I don't know the kind of addresses FreeBSD uses for autoconfigured
link-local addresses.
For example: fe80::20e:cff:fe34:2bf8%em0
What the hack is %em0 ??? Interestingly I can use this address, but ping6
fe80::20e:cff:fe34:2bf8 doesn't work
The Handbook doesn't clarify this mysterious address. Is it FreeBSD
specific?
Thanks in andvance, I posted this also to current@ since I got no answer
