Port numbers

Since the specification uses the colon (:) as a separator, the colon cannot be used as the port number marker, as in IPv4:

Instead, the parentheses notation is used, as in the following example:


2001:0db8:85a3:0000:0000:8a2e:0370:7334(8080)

Note: The port number is included in parentheses (8080). For IPv6 addresses, searches by using port numbers are not supported.
