APAR status
Closed as program error.
Error description
The getaddrinfo and inet_ntop functions fail when given an IPv6 address string containing a scope or zone specification. This specification consists of a percent sign ("%") followed by a string at the end of the IPv6 address. The result is that applications such as ssh work with standard IPv6 addresses but fail when a scope or zone is appended to the same IPv6 address.
Local fix
Problem summary
Applications such as ssh will fail when a scope or zone part is appended to the IPv6 address.
Problem conclusion
Code changes are made to handle IPv6 address with zone part.
Temporary fix
