Comment 5 for bug 1703698

@hongbin,

Here is what I find right now.

I use the following code run at host directly and in plugin container, it success in host, but failed in plugin container.

Here is code:
root@devstack:~# cat a.py
import pyroute2

ip = pyroute2.IPDB()
with ip.interfaces['tap1e510214-51'] as iface:
    iface.add_ip('fd34:d27c:33d3:0:f816:3eff:fe3f:8693/64')

I find if I run the code in side plugin container, I see the IPV6 is setted on interface, but it is fd34:d27c:33d3::f816:3eff:fe3f:8693%32687/64, it is very strange that it has "%32687" there.

Here is output of ifconfig:
tap1e510214-51 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr FE:DA:A6:93:E3:28
          inet6 addr: fd34:d27c:33d3::f816:3eff:fe3f:8693%32687/64 Scope:Global
          UP BROADCAST MTU:1500 Metric:1
          RX packets:8 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0
          TX packets:7 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0
          collisions:0 txqueuelen:1000
          RX bytes:816 (816.0 B) TX bytes:738 (738.0 B)

I need to go on check why it has "%32687" in the IPV6 address.
