IPv6 Testing #7

Closed openfirmware closed 6 years ago

openfirmware commented 6 years ago

Something to consider is testing with IPv6 networking for the ETS test server host address instead of only IPv4. Right now the IPv4 address 127.0.0.1 is used in test run properties, which would correspond to IPv6 ::1. The other IPv4 host that may be commonly used is 0.0.0.0, corresponding to all interfaces, and that is ::/128 in IPv6.

I had no issues using ::1 for the address and [::1] for the host test run properties, which will launch the test server on the IPv6 loopback address. This works when running it as a JAR or when running in TEAM Engine, although in the latter case a FQDN for the host is preferable because it is easier to administrate an AAAA record on the DNS when the IP changes instead of updating the CTL script manually.
