|
|
Using the Linode Manager, it takes me two clicks to find the private IP of a server, which is then buried in the middle of the page and not even on a line by itself, so copying it requires extra care. This seriously slows me down when configuring things like node balancers and hosts files, enough that I think it is the most annoying thing about the site!
Please consider this a request for that IP address, which is essential information for people who use it, to be on the main "Linodes" page in its own column.
Does anybody else agree?

| It will eventually not matter, because with IPv6 there's no public/private IPs, you're simply not billed for internal traffic. |

| Then at that point I would complain about the IPv6 address not being in the table. The information we need to access our servers should be there. |

Personally, I wouldn't care. I've got my notebook with all the important administration info. I'd hate if I had to login to Linode for every little info lookup, it's easier to open the bookmarked notebook page. :) |
