Introduction to JSA_IP_PREF

A hostname can be either a domain name (www.example.com) or an IP address. When use an IPv4 address as hostname, you can just specify a part of full IPv4 address after set the environment variable JSA_IP_PREF properly.

For example:

Input	JSA_IP_PREF	Result IPv4
7	192.168.0	192.168.0.7
7.7	192.168.0	192.168.7.7
7.7.7.7	192.168.0	7.7.7.7
7.7	192	(Invalid)

The input can be 1~4 segments.
