[jboss-jira] [JBoss JIRA] Commented: (JGRP-1095) MPING: doesn't work with IPv6

[Bela Ban (JIRA)]

    [ https://jira.jboss.org/jira/browse/JGRP-1095?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12493089#action_12493089 ] 

Bela Ban commented on JGRP-1095:
--------------------------------

The issue is that the scope-id is *added* to a scopeless link-local addr by JGroups ! This is fine for binding, but we cannot return a scoped link-local IPv6 address as the caller will not be able to establish a socket connection to us !

So maybe only use the scope-id for binding a socket, but return the unscoped LL IPv6 address.

This affects
- MPING
- TCPGOSSIP and
- TUNNEL

> Running MPING with TCP works with IPv4, but not with IPv6 (members don't find each other). The config is
> <MPING mcast_addr="ff0e::8:8:5"
>            mcast_port="7200"
>            num_ping_requests="1"
>            timeout="3000" 
>            num_initial_members="3"/>
