[jboss-jira] [JBoss JIRA] (AS7-3042) IPv6: Invalid redirect to Admin console (wrong IP address)

[Richard Achmatowicz (JIRA)]

    [ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/AS7-3042?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12666415#comment-12666415 ] 

Richard Achmatowicz commented on AS7-3042:
------------------------------------------

Does this issue have anything to do with IPv6?  If I start the AS like this:
{noformat}
./standalone.sh -Djboss.bind.address=127.0.0.1 -Djboss.bind.address.management=192.168.0.103
{noformat}
I see the same problem. Isn't the problem simply that the redirect only works if the jboss.bind.address and jboss.bind.address.management are the same IP address?

The fact that in the IPv6 case the console binds to ::ffff:127.0.0.1 and not ::1 is because the default address of 127.0.0.1 is picked up for jboss.bind.address.management from the profile and this is the IPv6 representation of it (which is not equal to ::1).

> This issue is some derivation from AS7-3040. Lets imagine starting server like this:
> {code}./standalone.sh -Djava.net.preferIPv4Stack=false -Djboss.bind.address=::1{code}
> So by default the admin/management is bound to _::ffff:127.0.0.1:9990_ and _::ffff:127.0.0.1:9999_, but it isn't accessible from Web WelcomePage at _::1:8080_ because the URL is specified as: {code}<a href="/console">{code} and so the next request is http://[::1]:8080/console which redirect requester to http://[::1]:9990, but there isn't any console because it is here - http://[::ffff:127.0.0.1]:9990.
> This is not good as it could lead to integration issues between components (X trying to connect to Y on ::1; Y listening on ::ffff:127.0.0.1).
