Description

I've got an IPv6 only Redis cluster. The client connects fine to any hash slots on the existing node, but if it needs to go to another node it fails. Have proven the network is fine as another client will connect fine not in .Net code. Odd how the port is in the endpoint.

Connection string was "[abcd:1234:3:a::a]:7000,[abcd:1234:3:a::b]:7000"

The GetEndpoints has 8 endpoints when there is only 6 in the cluster (3 master, 3 slave).

'Endpoint [abcd:1234:3:a::c:7000]:0 serving hashslot 6438 is not reachable at this point of time. Please check connectTimeout value. If it is low, try increasing it to give the ConnectionMultiplexer a chance to recover from the network disconnect. IOCP:

Research direction

Start with the ConnectionMultiplexer handling of the IPv6 connection string and the GetEndpoints result for a Redis cluster. Reproduce the six-node IPv6-only cluster case using the supplied endpoint format, then trace the endpoint reported for hashslot 6438. Done means redirects to other cluster nodes connect successfully and GetEndpoints reports the expected nodes without malformed ports.
