IPv6 Testing on NFS should be similar to IPv4 NFS, and when specifying ipv6 address, it needs to be enclosed in square brackets.  Link-local and site-local IPv6  addresses must be accompanied by an interface identifier.
Please see ipv6(7) manpage for details on specifying raw IPv6 addresses.


* An example of /etc/fstab shows how to mount an NFS server using a raw IPv6 link local address using brackets:
            [fe80::215:c5ff:fb3e:e2b1%eth0]:/export /mnt nfs  defaults  0 0
* An good example to try is to mount a nfs filesystem via an ipv6 address:
            # mount -t nfs '[2001:470:8:d63:20e:cff:fec6::1]:/export' /mnt/foo
Note: NFS Client side IPv6 support is in RHEL6.0; NFS Server side IPv6 support is in RHEL6.1
