IPv6 Link-Local addresses are missing scope.

Open bauer-andreas opened this issue 3 years ago • 1 comments

Problem

HAP-Proxy derives the Proxies accessory address from its mDNS announcement. It fails to connect when using the advertised IPv6 Link-Local of a accessory as the required interface scope is not appended to the address.

Solution

Append the scope (%<interface name>) to the address string.

As shown in the linked commit, and option --hostname was added to the CLI to specify a custom hostname. This acts as a workaround for this issue.
