Bug ID: 67065
Summary: Using "::1" to bind to all local addresses (IPV4 and
IPV6)
Product: Tomcat 9
Version: 9.0.78
Hardware: PC
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: P2
Component: Connectors
Assignee: dev@tomcat.apache.org
Reporter: amit.pa...@veritas.com
Target Milestone: -----
Reference thread:

Main problem statement:
By default, the Tomcat HTTP connectors bind to all local interfaces (including
public interfaces). If we need to bind to only local loopback addresses,
currently we need to define two connectors with everything else identical but
only address attribute being different (::1 for IPv6 and 127.0.0.1 for IPv4).
It would be handy if we could use an address like ::1 to bind to all local
interfaces (IPv4 and IPv6). This will ensure only one connector configuration
is sufficient to bind to only local interfaces (IPv4 and IPv6).
