IPv6

You can enable IPv6 to allow clients to access CDN PoPs using the IPv6 protocol and allow CDN to carry IPv6 client IP addresses to access your origin server.

Precautions

  • Most CDN PoPs support IPv6. After IPv6 is enabled, if a user uses IPv6 to access CDN but the optimal PoP does not support IPv6, the user can still use IPv4 to access the PoP.
  • IPv6 cannot be enabled for domain names with special configurations.

Procedure

  1. Log in to Huawei Cloud console. Choose Service List > Content Delivery & Edge Computing > Content Delivery Network.

    The CDN console is displayed.

  2. In the navigation pane, choose Domains.
  3. In the domain name list, click the domain name or click Configure in the row containing the domain name.
    Figure 1 IPv6

    After IPv6 is enabled on the CDN console, if the origin server does not support IPv6, IPv4 will be used for origin pull.

  4. Switch on IPv6.
