When a client submits a cert request the CA will record the client hostname and IP address in the database. However, there's an inconsistency between different clients:

• if the request is submitted via the CLI the CA will record the IPv4 address.
• if the request is submitted via the UI the CA will record the IPv6 address.

The code that does the recording for CLI and UI are separate but identical. Ideally they should record identical IP addresses.

Proposed milestone: 10.3

Per CS/DS meeting of 08/10/2015 - 10.3
Reason: one instance gives ipv4 and another ipv6; will take a long time to track down

This seems to be environment specific. On another machine if the request is submitted via the UI the CA will record the IPv4 address.
