Hi fleet team, may i know where does fleet fetch the private ip? i found we have a lot of hosts with same private ip, i doubt fleet does take loopback ip as private ip, could u confirm?

hi! this is the code we use to fetch/parse network information about the host. As a summary, we send this query:

select ia.address, id.mac, id.interface
                        from interface_details id join interface_addresses ia
                               on ia.interface = id.interface where length(mac) > 0
                               order by (ibytes + obytes) desc

and then we do some programmatic filtering to discard link-local and loopback interfaces are you able to provide more details about the format that the problematic IPs have? Are the hosts VMs or containers by any chance?

we have a lot hosts whose private ip is 172.18.0.1 which means it pick ip of carma_br0 as private ip, this is not right.

@wennan.he thanks for the details! Coincidentally, I have just learned that we have a pull request that refactors this exact same code and I think it will solve your issue, let me get confirmation on that.

let me try it

👋 hey @wennan.he just following up on this, were you able to run the query?

Hi roberto, i am struggling with sth else, but i will let you know after i confirm it. thx.
