What RFC is this in? I expected to find the
answer in 2373 (IPv6 Address Architecture) but could not find it. So I'm
also curious: how is the scope index represented ? is it
inside the square brackets?
The Win32 function WSAAddressToString will represent it
this way as well, i.e., with port outside the square brackets ( and scope index
inside)
Thanks.

Subject: How to represent address/port pair?Is there a conventional way to represent a numeric IPv6 address along with
a port as a string? With v4, many applications would interpret a ":" as
introducing a port number, i.e. "telnet 127.0.0.1:9999". Obviously that
doesn't work well with v6 addresses. Any recommendations for the best way
to do something like that with v6?
