Do you want to use IPv6 only on downstream side (between browser and proxy) or upstream side (between proxy and origin server)?
only downstream
You need to tell the packets to only move on the green light. Har har
In squid.conf add:
You can also add for dns:
dns_nameservers IPv6OfRecursiveNameserver
EDIT: Sorry this ^^ was for upstream.
For downstream:
http_port YourServerIPv6Addess:ListeningPort
I added those to my conf but whatismyipaddress.com can still detect ipv4. Here's my conf
If you want to use IPv6 on downstream side (between browser and proxy) only, you should configure your browsers with the IPv6 address of the proxy server.
You don't need to change anything on the proxy server.
@yoursunny but sites like whatismyipaddress.com can still see your ipv4 but I want it hidden
You asked for limiting to IPv6 on downstream only.
This means, the proxy can only see the browser's IPv6 address.
Origin server would see the proxy's IP address, which can be either IPv4 or IPv6.
@yoursunny ok then how would I do it both down/up stream that will hide ipv4?
The simplest is deleting the IPv4 address on the network interface used by the proxy altogether.
This can be achieved by running the proxy program in a container, and assigning IPv6 only to the container's network interface.
I can't do that vps only has 256ram so I can't use containers
Delete the IPv4 on the VPS.
Also, Docker totally works in 256MB RAM.
