If upgrading from a configuration where a self IP has a name that resembles an IP address (example: '1.2.3.4'), and the self IP's address field is the same address but with a route domain (example: '1.2.3.4%5'), then validation will fail with an error of this form: 0107162c:3: Name (/Common/1.2.3.4) encodes address (1.2.3.4) which does not match address (1.2.3.4%5)
Upgrade will fail.
There exists an IP address with the described condition.
None. You will need to edit the configuration files to replace this self IP with another one with a name containing the route domain (or a name that does not resemble the IP address at all).
Upgrading from a configuration where a self IP has a name that resembles an IP address (example: '1.2.3.4'), and the self IP's address field is the same address but with a route domain (example: '1.2.3.4%5') now passes validation.
