I'm going through the IPv6 stuff and in the OSPFv3 output for show ipv6 ospf
neighbors it shows an Interface ID. I know M$ OSs have a %number ater the
IPv6 addresses as well. What is the significance and why is it used? I know
when I have to ping link-local addresses I have to specify an interface.
Why?

Thanks everyone.

John
