Set up IP: default address shown

[lammel-hub]

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. In Assistant, the default IP shown in Function: Set up IP is 127.0.0.1. This localhost is not (to my knowledge) useful for most users.

Describe the solution you'd like Context: Connection Function: Set up IP

• Set default IP visible to Public IP of Assistant

Describe alternatives you've considered There may be use cases where other IP is more relevant, but the most common case would be Public IP. Public IP is already the IP address communicated to the rendezvous server (RVS) when generating a Token, so it "makes sense".

Additional context n/a

I agree, the local loopback address is of very little use! But as the assistant doesn't even have to know its own public IP-address if he chooses to use the token variant, it would be a waste of time and network traffic to obtain the public PI each time the assistant is started. So I decided to only show the "blank" network button by default - and only resolve the public IP if it's clicked.

Good point! My only consideration would then be to put up "Set up IP" as default label for the function

With the existing tooltip it looks like that:

perfect solution! I see it in the BBII release
