The primitive shows what the DNS service on your machine provides. If 
there is no name attached to your IPv6 address, it won't show up (unless 
you know its address, because you can use that too).

AFAIK, the VM can't tell what interfaces are avaiable, which is probably 
what you're actually looking for.
