      org.rhq.enterprise.communications.util.prefs.LocalInetAddressSetupInstruction

public class LocalInetAddressSetupInstruction
extends SetupInstruction

This setup instruction is used to define a preference whose value is an IP address that is to be bound to the local host, but by default not the loopback device. This is used to allow a user to default the IP address to bind to something other than the loopback device (localhost or 127.0.0.1) in order for clients external to this local box to connect to it.
