Use http://address
The address should be converted using the following procedure.
1. Use a dash "-" to replace each colon ":" in an IPv6 address.
2. Append the Ethernet interface identifier you want to use to connect to the
Switch. But replace the percentage character "%" with "s".
3. Append ".ipv6-literal.net" at the end.
For example, the Switch uses an address fe80::1234:5678. The Ethernet
interface identifier you want to use on your computer to access the Switch is %4.
You have to type the following to access the Switch.
http://fe80--1234-5678-1s4.ipv6-literal.net.
Use http://[address]
For example, http://[fe80--1234-5678-1]
