Changelog 2016-06-26
• Admin Logs -Fixed IP address logging after performing an admin function with Control Panel.
• Admin Logs -This template is now cleaned up and works with IPv6 addresses. Also fixed are the page validation errors -- there were many of them.
---
NOTES
IPv4 maths: (75x structure)
4 groups of 3 digits with 3 '.' between them. [192.168.000.001]
4 * 3 + 3 = 15
plus a trailing null = 16
IPv6 maths: (76x structure)
8 groups of 4 digits with 7 ':' between them.
8 * 4 + 7 = 39
plus a trailing null = 40
To take into account the IPv4 tunneling features [0000:0000:0000:0000:0000:0000:192.168.000.001],
(6 * 4 + 5) + 1 + (4 * 3 + 3) = 29 + 1 + 15 = 45
plus a trailing null = 46
Beta testers: To allow IPv6 addresses within your Admin Logs and WhosOnline, run this SQL from:
Control Panel > Database Tools > SQL Command
This will be coded within the upgrader script before release.
