             Summary: IPv6 support for clients and managed computers
                 Key: VCL-804
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/VCL-804
             Project: VCL
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: database
    Affects Versions: 2.4
         Environment: Verified against 2.3.x DB, instructed that 2.4 DB is also 
affected
            Reporter: Karl Vollmer
            Priority: Trivial


Full support for IPv6 addresses from clients would be the higher priority as we 
(VCL admins) can't control the addresses our clients come from, but a 
side-bonus would be support for managing VMs that only have v6 addresses. 

using php's Inet_pton/inet_aton (perl should have it as well) plus the 
varbinary() database field type should allow you to still do "end >= ?" on v6 
and v4 ipaddresses - 
https://github.com/ampache/ampache/blob/develop/lib/class/access.class.php is 
an example implementation of PHP supporting IPv6
