Todd Lipcon commented on KUDU-1900:
-----------------------------------
Yea, I think if the remote address is in that loopback subnet that you
mentioned we can skip TLS. No need for IPv6 since we don't currently support
ipv6 sockets :)
> Localhost connections to single-host clusters on Ubuntu don't skip TLS

> On Ubuntu, it seems like we sometimes end up with connections from 127.0.1.1
> to 127.0.0.1 when running a local cluster and connecting to to it from the
> same machine. This is because Ubuntu puts an entry with the host's external
> hostname in /etc/hosts as 127.0.1.1, and the tablet server ends up
> registering with that name. The code that detects loopback connections sees
> the "127.0.0.1 -> 127.0.1.1" and decides it's not loopback.
