How to request an IPv6 prefix
Reviewed on 09 May 2023 • Published on 03 August 2021
Requirements:
- You have an account and are logged into the Dedibox console
- You have created a Dedibox dedicated server
All Scaleway Dedibox dedicated servers support IPv6. You can request a free /48 IPv6 prefix for your account. This prefix can then be divided into multiple /56 or /64 subnets. IPv6 is available for Dedibox servers in Paris, Amsterdam, and Warsaw.
- Click Server > Network configuration in the Dedibox console. The network configuration page displays.
- Scroll to the bottom of the page and click Order a free /48 IPv6 block:
The IPv6 prefix is delivered within 30 minutes and is visible on the network configuration page.
Note:
You need to have at least one Dedibox dedicated server to order an IPv6 prefix.
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.
