Plex does not particularly like parsing IPv6 subnets (CIDR form) in the allowedNetworks field:

The value I provided was 2a02:168::/32.

The first problem is that it tries to do this really often and drives CPU usage up.
The second problem is that in 28 days it’s 2020 and Plex can’t parse an IPv6 CIDR.

Please fix this.
