Hí,

I have recently found out a problem with assigning IPv6 prefix via static 
protocol for the VLAN interface.

When I wrote this:
protocol static leases {
        route 2001:db8:0:100::/56 via fe80::xxxx:xxff:fexx:xxxx%eth1.3330;
}

It gave me:
/etc/bird/leases6.conf, line 2: syntax error

However, when I use a host interface for that VLAN (%eth1), it suddenly works.

I've also tried to assign prefix via public address used on that interface (say 
2001:db8::xxxx (/64). Even though there was no error in configuration phase, 
the route was ignored by bird.

Is there a way how to insert static route pointing to the VLAN interface? Is 
the "dot" syntax supported? Has anyone had more luck using a static protocol 
in that manner? If it is a bug, will it be fixed in 1.6.x, or just in bird2?

I've tried to do that on version 1.6.0 as well as 1.6.3, no luck in the both 
cases.

Best regards,
