How to View Your Servelet's Automatically Assigned IPV6 Address

Back

Every servelet is automatically assigned with an IPv6 address through SLAAC (stateless address auto-configuration). To check the IPv6 address assigned to your servelet:

1. Linux OS (e.g. CentOS, Ubuntu, Debian, etc)

For Linux users, you can check the IPv6 address assigned to your servelet by running the "ifconfig" command:

====
root@SERVERNAME [~]# ifconfig
eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 06:77:E8:01:12:AF
inet addr:10X.2X.X02.XXX Bcast:103.25.202.255 Mask:255.255.255.0
inet6 addr: 2400:c980:0:2:477:e8ff:f981:12bb/64 Scope:Global
inet6 addr: fe80::477:e8ff:fe01:12af/64 Scope:Link
UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1
RX packets:1322021 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0
TX packets:222514 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0
collisions:0 txqueuelen:1000
RX bytes:97284109 (92.7 MiB) TX bytes:509925063 (486.3 MiB)

lo Link encap:Local Loopback
inet addr:127.0.0.1 Mask:255.0.0.0
inet6 addr: ::1/128 Scope:Host
UP LOOPBACK RUNNING MTU:65536 Metric:1
RX packets:15708 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0
TX packets:15708 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0
collisions:0 txqueuelen:0
RX bytes:4806824 (4.5 MiB) TX bytes:4806824 (4.5 MiB)
====

Based on the above SAMPLE result, the IPv6 address assigned to your servelet is 2400:c980:0:2:477:e8ff:f981:12bb.

2. Windows Server OS

For Windows users, to check the IPv6 address assigned to your servelet, open "Command Prompt" and then run the "ipconfig" command:

====
C:\Users\Administrator>ipconfig

Windows IP Configuration

                                       fe80::219:a9ff:fe9f:9dc0%11
                                       103.25.X.X

Based on the above SAMPLLE result, the IPv6 address assigned to your servelet is 2400:c980:0:1:2cd8:XXXX:XXXX:cc24.

3. Other Note:

Servelet users can also request up to 1 (one) /64 subnet of IPv6 address, and purchase more. Please see this article for more details.
