Vultr VX1™ Cloud Compute instances support IPv6, but the platform does not assign a public IPv6 address unless you enable it during instance deployment. After enabling IPv6, you can create additional IPv6 addresses, attach them to your instance, and configure reverse DNS records.
Follow this guide to add IPv6 addresses to a Vultr VX1™ Cloud Compute instance using the Vultr Console or API.
- Navigate to Products and click Compute.
- Click your target Vultr VX1™ Cloud Compute instance to open the management page.
- Navigate to the Settings tab.
- Click IPv6 on the left navigation menu.
- Click Assign IPv6 Network to allocate an IPv6 subnet if your instance does not have one.
- Return to the main navigation menu and click Network.
- Click Reserved IPs.
- Click Add Reserved IP.
- Select the location, choose IPv6 as the type, enter a label, and click Add to create the reserved IPv6 address.
- Select the newly created reserved IPv6 address from the list.
- Under Attach to Server, select your VX1™ instance and click Attach to bind the IPv6 address to the server.
- To configure reverse DNS, return to your instance information page, open Settings, click IPv6, and edit the Reverse DNS entry for the attached IPv6 address.
