Failover does not support IPv6. The ipv6 address command does not support setting standby addresses
Note
for failover configurations. The failover interface ip command does not support using IPv6 addresses
on the failover and Stateful Failover interfaces.
When entering IPv6 addresses in commands that support them, simply enter the IPv6 address using
standard IPv6 notation, for example
and processes the IPv6 address. However, you must enclose the IPv6 address in square brackets ([ ]) in
the following situations:

Configuring IPv6 on an Interface
At a minimum, each interface needs to be configured with an IPv6 link-local address. Additionally, you
can add a site-local and global addresses to an interface.
FWSM does not support IPv6 anycast addresses.
Note
You can configure both IPv6 and IPv4 addresses on an interface.
You cannot configure IPv6 on an interface that is used by more than one context (a shared VLAN).

You need to specify a port number with the address, for example:
[fe80::2e0:b6ff:fe01:3b7a]:8080
The command uses a colon as a separator, such as the write net and config net commands. For
example:
configure net [fe80::2e0:b6ff:fe01:3b7a]:/tftp/config/pixconfig
