Nodebalancer Private IPv6?

networking

I'm trying to craft iptables rules on my servers behind Nodebalancer. According to https://www.linode.com/docs/platform/no … ence-guide">https://www.linode.com/docs/platform/nodebalancer/nodebalancer-reference-guide, I should expect the nodebalancer to be from 192.168.255.0/24.

What about IPv6? What IPv6 range should I expect the nodebalancers to be from?

I see Nodebalancer has a public (and persistent) IPv6.

The NodeBalancer is a full connection proxy, so it'll always use IPv4 for the backend connection, even if the frontend connection comes from an IPv6 address.
