Does ipv6 tunnel (e.g. cloudflare) consume bandwidth?
Hello
I have a question about ipv4 => ipv6 tunneling via HE or cloudflare. If I use a box with native ipv6 and no ipv4 ip and then, use tunnel to use it in normal ipv4 world and domain, does traffic affect cloudflare/he? Is this traffic metered in cloudflare's or he's systems and, if yes, how much bandwidth can a free user consume?
Sorry for the noobie question, but I have no serious experiacne in ipv6.

cloudflare does not charge for bandwidth. so you are limited on the bandwidth that your host provides you.
CloudFlare and HE (HE I believe does) give you unlimited bandwidth. CloudFlare also uses IPv4 to IPv6 (and vice versa) dualstacking on their servers, so that saves you the complicated setup time of hosting providors that don't use IPv6 yet.
