IPv6 Test

What this checks

• Current or entered IPv4 and IPv6 addresses.
• Overall dual-stack status: dual-stack, IPv4-only, IPv6-only, or unavailable.
• Per-stack score, location, operator, ASN, service role, and risk traits.

How to interpret results

• Dual-stack means both IPv4 and IPv6 results were returned for the assessment.
• IPv4-only or IPv6-only means only one stack was visible through the assessment path.
• A bypass warning means IPv4 and IPv6 differ materially in country, ASN/operator, service role, or risk traits.

Common issues

• VPNs, mobile networks, carrier NAT, split tunneling, and browser network policy can produce different IPv4 and IPv6 paths.
• No IPv6 result can mean IPv6 is disabled, filtered, or unavailable from the current connection.

Privacy note

The IPv6 test calls the site's first-party assessment endpoint and forwards only sanitized request context for current-connection detection.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does the IPv6 test compare?

It compares IPv4 and IPv6 assessment results, including score, country, ASN, operator, service role, and privacy or risk traits.

Can IPv6 bypass a VPN or proxy?

Yes. Some privacy tools protect only IPv4 paths, so an active IPv6 route can expose a different country, ASN, or network owner.
