How to type ipv6-address and port number in URL bar?
I have a Tomcat server which I would like to visit via it's IPv6 address.
In IPv4, I would simply type http://<ipv4-address>:8080 in the URL bar.
In IPv6, I can't seem to find out what I have to type in the URL bar - every request I make sends me to my default search engine.
Among others, I tried the following:
http://[<ipv6-address>]:8080
http://[<ipv6-address>%eth0]:8080
To my understanding of RFC 5952, this should do the job.
However, also skipping the destination port doesn't seem to send me to the server on port 80 or 443:
http://<ipv6-address>
https://<ipv6-address>
I've even tried to add the host in my /etc/hosts, with any of those lines:
<ipv6-address>%eth0 foo
<ipv6-address> bar
Still, requests such as
http://[foo]:8080
http://foo:8080
http://[bar]:8080
http://bar:8080
also don't seem to work.
Firefox version in use is 44.0.2
Thanks for your help!

Yes, IPv6 is enabled.
Unfortunately, http://[<ipv6-address>]:8080 does not work. I tried to restart firefox without plugins to make sure that things like FoxyProxy don't come in the way, but that also didn't solve the problem.
I checked in wireshark, and I don't see a connection attempt from firefox to the webserver.
I also tried to switch on HTTP logging. When I look for the ipv6 address in the logfile, I see those messages:

So the problem might be that it's a link-local IPv6 address, and firefox doesn't know with which interface to resolve it.
After looking around for this specific issue, i found this: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=700999
So, it seems like you are not able to visit a link-local IPv6 address with firefox...
EDIT: By using burp proxy, I am able to connect to my server via http://[<link-local ipv6 address>]:8080 It's not a solution, but at least a workaround until firefox will support link-local ipv6 addresses.

Is IPv6 enabled?
- network.dns.disableIPv6 = false
I think that this should work:
- http://[<ipv6-address>]:8080
- http://mxr.mozilla.org/mozilla-release/search?string=ipv6+address&find=&findi=&filter=^[^\0]*%24&hitlimit=&tree=mozilla-release
