------------------------------------

             Summary: Providing locator as ipv6 address is not supported.
                 Key: GEODE-7594
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GEODE-7594
             Project: Geode
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: native client
            Reporter: Jacob Barrett


Providing a locator address of {{[::1]}} should connect to IPv6 localhost on the default port.

Ambiguity arrises from our non-standard use of the {{[]}} to denote port number. If we continue to support that then {{[ipv6-address][port]}} should also be a supported format. Preferably {{host[port]}} format should be deprecated in favor of the standard {{host:port}}.

At a very least we should accept:
{{domain:port}}
{{ipv4-address:port}}
{{[ipv6-address]:port}}
{{domain[port]}} with deprecation warning
{{ipv4-address[port]}} with deprecation warning
