IPv6 address in Source and Destination

[sergey-safarov]

I want to search using Source and Destination fields value. In my case using IPv6 addresses. The current length of Source and Destination fields do not allow place full IPv6 addresses. Could you extend the size of the Source and Destination fields?

Maximal length of IPv6 address is 45 chars. Link

Hi @sergey-safarov

Above commit allows both fields to internally store a bigger filter string. Take into account these fields are regular expressions, so avoid using brackets for ipv6 addresses.

Also, if you are filtering a lot of data, it would be better to use BPF filters in command line.

Thanks for reporting!

Thanks @Kaian I have made a test of current master and I able to specify IPv6 address like 2000:1111:2222:3333:4444:5555:6666:7777. But not able to specify 0000:0000:0000:0000:0000:ffff:192.168.100.228 that will be also the correct address.

Generally, I am fine with the latest update. So, I close commit.
