I have been researching link-local multicast IPv6 to work with ssh, and I keep coming on documentation that states to execute

ssh ff02::1:ff00:1%wlan0

When I do this, I simply get

ssh: connect to host ff02::1:ff00:1%wlan0 port 22: Network is unreachable

I can, however, ping6 the address, ie

# ping -I wlan0 ff02::1:ff00:1
PING ff02::1:ff00:1(ff02::1:ff00:1) from fe80::2e0:98ff:fef6:2ebf: 56 data bytes
64 bytes from fe80::210:5aff:fe99:c6e7: icmp_seq=1 ttl=64 time=4.69 ms

--- ff02::ff00::1 ping statistics --
1 packets transmitted, 1 received, 0% packet loss, time 0ms
rtt min/avg/max/mdev = 4.691/4.691/4.691/0.000 ms

What am I doing wrong here? I would really like this to work, because I am using shfs to remotely mount my portage directory, but the address of the server changes with my location.

Thanks
