There is an open issue that confirms enabling ipv6 for containers works: https://github.com/psviderski/uncloud/issues/126 But this hasn’t been enabled by default.

What specifically do you mean by ipv6 support?

I'm no expert, so I'm not sure if I'll explain it correctly. But I've been using docker swarm in a server, I use traefik as reverse proxy, and it just doesn't seem to work (I've tried a lot) with ipv6 (issue that might be related https://github.com/moby/moby/issues/24379)

This question does not make sense. This is equivalent to asking "What specifically do you mean by ipv4 support"

These days both protocols must be supported, and if there is a blocker it should be clearly mentioned.

How do you want to allocate ipv6 addresses to containers? Turns out there are lots of answers. Some people even want to do ipv6 NAT.

A really cool way to do it is how Yggdrasil project does it (https://yggdrasil-network.github.io/implementation.html#how-...). They basically use public keys as identities and they deterministically create an IPv6 address from the public key. This is beautiful and works for private networks, as well as for their global overlay IPv6 network.

What do you think about the general approach in Uncloud? It almost feels like a cousin of Swarm. Would love to get your take on it.

Like docker? --fixed-cidr-v6=2001:db8:1::/64
