IPv6 Manager

Updated

The IPv6 Manager lets the server serve websites, DNS and mail over IPv6 in addition to IPv4.

Where

Admin panel → CWP Settings → IPv6.

What it does

Enter one IPv6 address of the server. CWP then adds it to the web server (Nginx / Apache vhosts listen on IPv6), publishes AAAA DNS records for the hosted domains, and makes the server reachable over IPv6. The existing IPv4 setup is kept; IPv6 is served alongside it (dual stack).

Requirements

  • A routed IPv6 address (or block) assigned to the server by the provider, configured on the network interface.
  • Correct IPv6 gateway/route so the address is reachable from the Internet.

Notes

  • Per-account and multiple IPv6 addresses, PTR (reverse DNS) and outbound mail over IPv6 are managed separately.
  • Removing the IPv6 address reverts the vhosts and AAAA records to IPv4 only.
