How can I browse the router's webui interface with Ipv6 address in browser?

[Poul Bak]

Router: RT-AC68U, firmware: merlin 384.3
I have implemented Ipv6 on my Network (my ISP supports Tunnel 6rd). This works fine and I can pass the tests from http://test-ipv6.com/ (10/10) and http://ipv6-test.com/ (19/20 - only reverse lookup fails).
However I can't browse the router's web ui using the Ipv6 address of the router in the address bar (it gives an error 'Not found'). I know I have to use brackets around the ipv6 address, so it looks like this:
http://[2a00:fd00:xxxx:yyyyy::1]/
This would be nice especially for testing Ipv6 functionality.
I have added the router's Ipv6 address and name in the 'hosts.add' file of '/jfffs/configs'. I can ping the router with both name, ipv4 and ipv6 address, and nslookup Works too.
All I want is to browse the router with ipv6 address.
Is that possible (if not, it would be a feature request) ?

You want the link-local ipv6 addr to access things perhaps...

should be an fe80:: as a pre-fix..

httpd doesn't bind to the router's IPv6 address. There's nothing immediately obvious in the source code to suggest it supports IPv6.

Well, that's a shame, it should be possible. I can browse my nas (a WD MyCloudEX2) with dns name, ipv4 address and ipv6 address! But I guess, I will have to use that for testing then.

Is it possible to browse GUI from WAN by it's static IP? Since I have IPv4 under CG-NAT and static IPv6 has been assigned...is this possible yet?

It doesn't look like it. httpd only binds to the LAN IPv4 interface and uses IPv4 port forwarding for external access.

So does it mean that our Asus Routers are actually NOT IPv6 compliant?

Compliant with what, or do you mean compatible?
