Can I Unbind an IPv6 Address from a Dedicated Load Balancer?

To use your dedicated load balancer to route both IPv4 and IPv6 requests, you need to enable IPv6 for your subnet where the dedicated load balancer is deployed. Once IPv6 is enabled for the subnet, an IPv6 address will be assigned to the load balancer.

If you no longer need your load balancer to route IPv6 requests, you can unbind the IPv6 address from your load balancer. The IPv6 address will then be released and cannot be used to access the load balancer.

If you need your load balancer to route IPv6 requests again, you can call the API to bind an IPv6 address to your load balancer. This IPv6 address may not be the former one.
