How to activate an IPv6 block for Scaleway Dedibox servers

Reviewed on October 20, 2025

Note

You can now manage resources from both the Scaleway and the Dedibox consoles. However, ordering Dedibox servers from the Scaleway console is only possible if you have added a SEPA payment method in your Dedibox console. If you do not complete this step, you can only use the Dedibox console to place orders (see the Dedibox documentation).

Before you start

To complete the actions presented below, you must have:

A Scaleway account logged into the console
Owner status or IAM permissions allowing you to perform actions in the intended Organization
Ordered a Dedibox server

Click Dedibox in the Bare Metal section of the side menu. The Dedibox overview page displays.
Click the IPv6s tab to enter the IPv6 section of the console.
Click + Activate my IPv6 block. A pop-up displays.
Click Activate my free IPv6 block to obtain a /48 IPv6 block.

Your IPv6 block will be activated and displayed on the IPv6 page.

Important

The DUID of your prefix (and each of its subnets) is like a private key and grants you access to your prefix. Keep it secret and do not share it.
