Yes. I experimented with 4.x dummynet shaping on a popular web site, and
it seems the first IP:port to run through the pipe gets shown, as above,
for the life of that pipe. The byte/packet count is NOT specific to that
single IP:port, it's everything travelling through the pipe. I'm not sure
why this display is considered useful (?). If you delete and redo the pipe
you'll probably get a different IP showing, so I wouldn't be too concerned
about it... do some local testing with known IPs if you want to follow it
up further?

Cheers.
