Access to your instance via IPv6

Access to your instance via IPv6

Your instance supports connectivity over IPv6, allowing you to take advantage of the expanded address space and improved routing efficiency that IPv6 provides. IPv6 is the latest version of the Internet Protocol, designed to replace IPv4 and address the limitations of address exhaustion and network scalability.

To enable access to your instance via IPv6, you must configure a CNAME record in your DNS settings. Only CNAME records are supported for IPv6 connectivity to your instance; other record types (such as A or AAAA) are not supported for this purpose.

To enable IPv6 access, you need to set the CNAME record for your domain to the IPv6 endpoint. Do not use the default endpoint for IPv4.

  • For IPv4 access, use:
    t.sni.global.fastly.net
  • For IPv6 access, use:
    dualstack.t.sni.global.fastly.net

Important:
If you want your clients to connect over IPv6, ensure your DNS CNAME record points to dualstack.t.sni.global.fastly.net instead of the default t.sni.global.fastly.net.
