It's certainly an IPv6 address - 128 bits, and "::" means 'the

Maybe your macs are using IPv6 natively. Why is it causing a problem?
ah. i'm unfamiliar with them - this one looked different at first
glance than ipv6 examples I've seen in the past.
the issue is that i log/track according to ip. all my db fields are
varchar(15) in postgres, to account for ipv4 addresses.
there are too many fields/apps to update, and I only pull the ip
address once in each app using a shared library item - so the easiest
way to fix things would be to force ipv4 on there.
odd that the mac suddenly started using iipv6 to talk to each other.
i didn't even know my router could support it.
