Hey Terry,
Sorry for the delayed response.

The convention for specifying IPv6 addresses and ports in URLs is to put the
address in brackets, and the port after the closing bracket, separated by
a colon.

   argus-udp://[ fe80::21c:c0ff:fe9c:6820]:10500

It's the only way with all those colons in the IPv6 address.
