ILORest cannot fall-back to Ipv4 if the target ILO's DNS has IPv4 and IPv6 IPs #70

Problem: When the host running ILOREST has both IPv4 and IPv6, and the target ILO's DNS returned results give both IPv4 and IPv6. There isn't a way to ensure using the SSL Cert is being validated with the FQDN and force the ILORest to use the IP version needed.

Tools like curl have a -4 and -6 to force the connection to be one of the given protocols despite what the DNS results would return.

@patchsmyle , Could not understand what is the usecase here. Please send us the exact you have used so that we can try to reproduce locally here and fix if necessary. Currently ilorest supports ipv4 and ipv6 IP addresses for hostname. Is this user/pass login for certificate login scenario?
