Currently we need to specify ip and interface.

throw new Error('For IPv6 multicast you must specify ip and interface')

But I am not sure why.

Couldn't extend those defaults for Ipv6 be used to enable IPv6 without a special interface definition?

Note: I just read that for ipv6, the interface needs to be a zone which could be assigned by using the interfaces name: ::%network_name

(reference: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/38448369/ipv6-multicast-with-node-js)

The MDNSv6 RFC would be relevant here https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc6762
