[users@httpd] IPv6 support on Apache-2.2.x
Hi Apache developers,
When I type URL something like http://[fe80::2e0:81ff:fe78:cd12%4]/ on my
Firefox browser (IE7 doesn't allow this URL at all) with the SCOPE-ID in
the URL, apache is giving the following error message,
"HTTP/1.1 400 Bad Request
...
Your browser sent a request that this server could not understand."
I could see that there is already a [Bug 35122] raised on Apache-2.x for
scope-if support but looks like even in apache-2.2.11, this doesn't seems to
be fixed.
Could you please let me know your views on this by earliest.
Thanks and regards,
Sathya

Sathya, what do you really want ? a registered letter from the Apache
Software Foundation ?
This is a user help forum, dedicated to helping people with Apache
httpd. Apache httpd is an open-source, free software. The people who
write it are volunteers.
The source code of Apache is available for your inspection.
The people answering on this forum are also volunteers.
There is not someone here that can give you anything like "an official
confirmation".
And if nobody that is currently reading this forum knows the answer,
they can also not give you an answer.
That's how it is with open-source, free products.
And it does not help to repeat the question 10 times, nor write it in
bold or capitals.
If anything, that tends to make people ignore the request.

Hi William,
Thanks a lot for your response.
Mozilla allows me to specify the %zone_id (scope_id) in the HTTP request but
as mentioned by you, it updates in "Host:" header field in HTTP request.

Sathya

Ok; now I have a better sense. For Mozilla, please do install the
http-headers add-in, so you can see what is being transmitted.

It cannot be assumed that indices are common across all nodes in a
zone (see Section 6). Hence, the format MUST be used only within a
node and MUST NOT be sent on the wire unless every node that
interprets the format agrees on the semantics.
I read this to say that zone_id's should not be propogated in httpd
headers. There is another question of whether the %zone_id should be
permitted in proxy machine names, listen directives, etc.
Can you spell out for us if Mozilla and IE refuse to let you specify
the %zone_id in the request, and if so, do they try to pass it on in
the Host; header (look using common sniffing tools such as the http
headers add-in)?

I think, now I would need to see if I can somehow specify the link local
address without scope-id in my client. Mozilla and IE web browsers
definitely seems to be not allowing me to do it.

Correct. See RFC3879;
http://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc3879.txt
suggests it should not be supported.

Thanks a lot Prasanna for the information & your time :-)
It would be really helpful if *someone could officially confirm*, HTTP
request (from web browser) to an *IPv6 link local address with scope-id is
not supported on Apache-2.2.x* ?
Thanks a lot in advance.

Then obviously the browser and server ARE communicating; otherwise how
did the request arrive and the response get sent?
Look for some other cause of the 400 error.

Request had reached the apache & I could see that apache logs "Client sent
malformed Host header" error message in error_log. Then apache sends "400
Bsd Request" to the server.
It would be really helpful if I would get a sure confirmation that link
local Ipv6 address is not supported with apache (or else HTTP request
packet with scope-id specified in the "Host" field of it.)
Thanks a lot in advance.

Re: [users@httpd] Re: IPv6 support on Apache-2.2.x
Posted by Prasanna Ram Venkatachalam <vp...@gmail.com>.
I always use global so i am not sure . Check error log of apache first.
If apache is not recognizing it, it should log something, if at all the
request reaches Apache.

I am trying on a Debian Linux which gives me only Ipv6 link local address
with ifconfig command(no global address found).
So to clearer, DOES IT MEAN THAT IPv6 LINK LOCAL ADDRESS IS NOT SUPPORTED
WITH APACHE?

Am not sure of RFC deprecation though i have a slightest remembrance of
hearing it somewhere.
About, Global, i don know how u can create one. What are the IPaddresses
your ipconfig gives? there are a lot of IPv6 addresses it will display when
you say ipconfig /all. Dont u see any other Ipv6 address apart from the
scoped one u are using?

There's some confusion here as to just what is problematic. A
link-local address works just fine without a scope-id. So those
suggesting a modification of the address need to ask, not "do you need
to use a link-local address," but, "do you need to specify a
scope-id?" Because the address parsing objected to the scope-id, not
to the interface address.
I've been pondering this a bit, and I can't think of a reason why
HTTPD would need to deal with scope-id.

Hi,
Thanks a lot for your response.
Just to be clearer, could you please as well answer to my below queries on
this as well,
> More to the point... aren't these deprecated by RFC now?
Could you please let me know on which RFC mentions that the use of link
local IPv6 address for HTTP is deprecated.
> Do you have a global address which u can use?
Could you please let me know on how do I create a IPv6 global address...

Is it necessary to access using scoped (link local?) addresses? Do you have
a global address which u can use? I did some stuffs around IPv6 URLs and we
used always Global addresses when creating a HTTP request. I was wondering
is it really a specific requirement or you are just using it.
