Yes, the IP back-to-source of DDoS protection IP supports the IPv6 protocol.
Explanation:
The IP back-to-source feature of DDoS protection IP allows the traffic to be redirected back to the original source IP address when DDoS attacks are detected and mitigated. This helps in maintaining the availability and accessibility of the legitimate traffic.
IPv6 is the latest version of the Internet Protocol, which provides a much larger address space and other improvements over IPv4. Supporting IPv6 in DDoS protection ensures that services and applications using IPv6 addresses are also protected against DDoS attacks.
Example:
Suppose a website is hosted on a server with an IPv6 address and is experiencing DDoS attacks. The DDoS protection service can detect and mitigate the attacks while redirecting the legitimate traffic back to the original IPv6 source address of the website, ensuring its availability to users.
Recommendation:
Tencent Cloud's Anti-DDoS Pro service supports both IPv4 and IPv6 protocols, providing comprehensive protection against DDoS attacks for various types of applications and services.
