Suggestion for dbab-get-list script

[wilbert-vb]

Read ipv4 address from the device:

dbabsvr_addr4=$(hostname -I|sed 's/\s.*$//')
echo $dbabsvr_addr4
192.168.1.1

Read ipv6 address from the device:

dbabsvr_addr6=$(hostname -I|sed 's/[^ ]* //')
echo $dbabsvr_addr6
2602:306:cdb5:67d0:ba27:ebff:fe0a:c6f5

Thanks @wilbert-vb,

The IPv6 used to slow things down for me, and have caused weird problems to me previously, so the first thing I do when on a new system is to disable IPv6.

Up till now, I still fail to see why I need IPv6, on top of a working IPv4. I.e., to me IPv4 is working fine and IPv6 brings nothing that I really need, but an extra layer of configuration, and risk of breaking things down.

So on my machine:

dbabsvr_addr6=$(hostname -I|sed 's/[^ ]* //')
$ echo $dbabsvr_addr6
192.168.2.101

But I'll keep the suggestion open, in case someone else find it useful.

Thanks again
