Wildcard IP address in Java option http.nonProxyHosts does not work

Steps to reproduce

1. Setup JIRA server at http://192.168.1.187:8080
2. Setup a Stash server at http://192.168.1.186:7990
3. Add the following JAVA option into JIRA and restart the server:

   JVM_SUPPORT_RECOMMENDED_ARGS="-Dhttp.proxyHost=192.168.2.18 -Dhttp.proxyPort=3128 -Dhttps.proxyHost=192.168.2.18 -Dhttps.proxyPort=3128 -Dhttp.nonProxyHosts=localhost|192.168.1.*"
   

4. Create the Application Link from Stash server to JIRA server
   During creation, the following warning appear:

   There is a problem communicating directly between these two applications. This may affect the behaviour of some integration features.
   

5. The Application Links are created successfully in both servers but the following warning appear when accessing Application Links page in JIRA server:

   Application 'Stash' seems to be offline. Click here to Relocate.
   

   The following error is found in JIRA log too:

Notes

Caused by https://ecosystem.atlassian.net/browse/SAL-363

only *.host wildcard type is supported (starts with asterisk).

Workaround

Edit the following to use full IP address instead of using wildcard:

-Dhttp.nonProxyHosts=localhost|192.168.1.186

Fix

Problem is improved in SAL 3.0.8+. JIRA 7.4.x uses sal-spi-3.1.0.jar
