The length of the "ipv6 interface-id" field for related hosts is limited to max. 22 characters. While this is enough in the case of /64 subnets, in general it's too short. It technically works also for bigger subnets (which can be configured using the "netmask ipv6" field of a host), it's just that the user interface does not allow for long enough interface-ids.
