Thanks - In DetNet we have an ID in progress we should change from type 
inet:ip-address to inet:ip-address-no-zone. I did not know that. 

My other thought is since the ipv4-address (with the zone) is of format 
"127.1.1.0%AndAUnterminatedString..", shouldn't every use of ipv4-address type 
also have a maximum length restriction? - If not - what controls the Maximum 
length? It is good practice to have maximums on input strings and I have come 
across xml validation rules that require exceptions for long strings - and the 
definition long is not usually very long.

Thanks
Don

Well you were right, ipv4-address is used all over the place and it probably 
shouldn't have been. Chalk another one up to sticking to the rules even when it 
harms us.

Thanks,
Chris.
