Some browsers (Chrome, iirc) will not submit the values from form fields
that are disabled. That means, that when re-displaying this form
(after an error in any other field, for example), that field's value
will be missing, and the browser will happily display the first option,
which is ipv4.

Another solution could be perhaps using "readonly" instead of "disabled".
