Hi all,
    Some doubts on the socket api for Ipv6.
* When a IPV6 packet is received throught the interface "recvmsg", how to get  the
    "zone_id" or "scope_id"  for the received Ipv6 Addr. When the "recvmsg"
    interface is called we get a structure in6_pktinfo, which has the ipv6 address and
    "ipi6_ifindex".... Does this "ipi6_ifindex" serve as "zone_id".

Please clarify.

Thanks
-arun
