Check name	Status	Explanation	Resolution
Ipv6 And Disconnected Network Test Compatibility	⚠️ Warning	Tests have hardcoded IPv4 CIDRs (192.168.1.0/24, 192.0.2.0/24), IPv4 addresses, URL construction without IPv6 support, and external registry refs (quay.io).	Add IPv4/IPv6 detection with GetIPAddressFamily(). Use net.JoinHostPort() for URLs. Replace external registries. Add [Skipped:Disconnected] for tests needing external access.
