Adding IPv6 address return error

[LucianN]

Hello,

I'm trying to add IPv6 on Parallels and I receive an error. I'm using CentOS 6.4. Parallels is updated.
The error: The specified IP address cannot be used on network interface. You need to specify a valid IP address with subnet prefix range or mask.
IPv6 I'm trying to add: fe80::216:3eff:fe77:257/64

At ifconfig this addr is set:

eth0      Link encap:Ethernet  HWaddr 00:16:3E:44:02:57
          inet addr:122.xxx.118.xxx  Bcast:122.xxx.119.255  Mask:255.255.248.0
          inet6 addr: fe80::216:3eff:fe77:257/64 Scope:Link

What is wrong?

Thanks!

Try to create IP in the system, then, from Plesk go to "Tools&Utilities->IP Addresses" and press the "Reread IP" button, the IPs would be added correctly.

Thank you for answering!
Please tell me what do you want to say with "Try to create IP in the system". It is appearing at ifconfig command. If isn't enough, please tell me what should I do.
"Reread IP" doesn't add it (right now).

Thanks!

You need to delete this already assigned to eth0 IPv6 address on OS level and then add it through Plesk interface.
