How to handle fields containg ipv4 OR ipv6 (actually only ::1 - ie. localhost)?

elasticsearch seems to go bananas when it gets data set to be ip - but
containing "::1".. :frowning:

I can see that the IP type does not support ipv6 yet.. but I would like to
be able to do range stuff on ip's..

Is there any way, I can make elasticsearch handle this better? (clientip
field is mapped to be of type ip).

it keeps logging:

Yes, unfortunately it has to be a valid IPv4 address. For now, you can
probably do a replace from the LS side to translate ::1 to something like
127.0.0.1. For example:

filter {
mutate {
gsub => [ "clientip", "::1", "127.0.0.1" ]
}
}
