Title: Commandlets of active checks and special agents may be passed None as IP
address
Component: Checks & agents
Level: 1
Class: New feature
Version: 2.1.0i1
This werk only affects users who have implemented their own plugins for active checks or
special agents (the ones commonly named <tt>checks/check_*</tt> and
<tt>checks/agent_*</tt>).
The functions implemented in those plugins have to a accept the IP address of the host as
an argument.
For hosts without an IP address they used to get passed
<tt>"0.0.0.0"</tt> or <tt>"::0"</tt>.
This has been changed to `None`.
Since most of these functions simply pass it on in a list, this should not make any
difference.
