RouterOS http service now listens on ipv6 address, too. To connect to IPv6, in your browser enter ipv6 address in square brackets, for example [2001:db8:1::4]. If it is required to connect to link local address, don't forget to specify interface name or interface id on windows, for example [fe80::9f94:9396%ether1].
