If IPs are used to do peer probe , then "gluster pool list" command will 
print IPs of all the nodes except the local host in the output. For the 
node on which command is being executed it will print "localhost".  IMO 
It would be better to print the local host as IP (*localhost)

e.g:

[root at dhcpX~]# gluster pool list
UUID                    Hostname    State
9d13600a-37a9-4f73-b72c-505da4c90d86    xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx    Connected
15928c8d-0dc4-4d8e-9f42-f900bf58d80f    localhost    Connected
