If you discover a BIG-IP device that that has an IPv6 self IP that specifies both a VLAN tag (K15203) and a Route Domain, and import its LTM service the import task fails with a message similar to the following: "java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Invalid address: fe80::4%vlan1246%3/64. Only one '%' character is allowed."
BIG-IQ cannot discover and import the BIG-IP device's LTM service.
A BIG-IP device has a self IP is configured with an IPv6 address that specifies both a VLAN tag and a Route Domain.
If possible, change the IPv6 self IP to use the VLAN tag for a VLAN that is part of the implicit default Route Domain (0). However, if your environment requires the Self IP to use a VLAN that is in an explicit, non-default Route Domain, then no workaround is available.
BIG-IQ can now discover and import BIG-IP devices that include IPv6 self IPs specifying both a VLAN tag and a Route Domain.
