node balancer traffic chart of ipv6

how to view node balancer ipv6 traffic chat, to ensure is it working properly with ipv6 and how much traffic is on ipv6

The Linode Manager won't show IPv6 traffic amounts for your NodeBalancer, but there's a few other ways to approximate this:

  • On each backend Linode, refer to the IPv6 network graphs in the Linode's dashboard

  • On each backend Linode, install a network monitoring tool that can display IPv6 traffic. For example, you could run iftop with one of these flags:

-l
Display and count datagrams addressed to or from link-local IPv6 addresses.  The default is not to display that address category.
-G net6/mask6
Specifies an IPv6 network for traffic analysis. The value of mask6 can be given as a prefix length or as a numerical address string for more compound bitmasking.
