      currently ip:port pairs in frontend (for example, configuration -> hosts) are printed as <ip>: <port>. while it is sort of ok for ipv4, it is not good for ipv6 :

      fdbf:b33f:1313:1337:dddd:dddd:1111:13: 10050
      

      standard way to enclose ipv6 address when port is present is to use square brackets like so :

      fdbf:b33f:1313:1337:dddd:dddd:1111:13                 <- no port
      [fdbf:b33f:1313:1337:dddd:dddd:1111:13]: 10050        <- port present
      

      we could also add a space before the colon both both for ipv4 and ipv6 addresses, making them look like this :

      [fdbf:b33f:1313:1337:dddd:dddd:1111:13] : 10050
      127.0.0.1 : 10050
