https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=292807 --- Comment #3 from Andrey V. Elsukov <[email protected]> --- The IPv6 loopback address belongs to link-local scope zone. This means a packet with IPv6 loopback address as source address can not leave this scope zone. Thus network stack fails to send such IP datagram. And "badscope" error counter will grow when this occurs. You can check `netstat -sp ip6 | grep "violated scope"`. I think this is expected behavior and it isn't bug. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
