[Bug 1459880] [NEW] IP Address length only needs to be 45 chars long

 

Public bug reported:

Currently, Neutron defines the ipallocations table's ip_address column
as String(64). IPv4 addresses are 15 chars long, while IPv6 addresses
are 39. The longest IP address possible is an IPv4 mapped IPv6 address,
that is 45 characters long.
