[erlang-bugs] diameter_transport any/loopback atoms not accepted

[anders.gs.svensson@REDACTED]

Hi Vincent.

Neither diameter_tcp nor diameter_sctp document any|loopback as
acceptable that I can see: they require an inet:ip_address(), neither
or which is an atom. Where are you looking?

That said, I'm not sure offhand why they don't/shouldn't handle these.
