Re-link IP address to v6 (or link multiple)
Hi,
New to NextDNS, this has probably been asked and answered many time so apologies -- please forgive the newbie...
I set up my first profile and had no issue linking my IPv4 address.
Since then I now have a v6 address from my ISP and a /48 PD I can use. My router is set up now with the IPv6 addresses of NextDNS -- BUT for the life of me I cannot make the profile link to my v6 even though I've verified (using Curl) that next DNS can see me using the v6 address. I've also tried setting up a new profile and linking that but same issue, still the v4 shows.
I can't tell whether the v6 has linked but the UI can only show one (and chooses the first), or whether for whatever reason my browser / Mac are insisting on sending v4 all the way to the DNS.
I am new to everything -- new to my router / networking environment (Unifi), new to NextDNS, new to IPv6... steep learning curve. If anyone can point me in the right direction, I'd appreciate it.
Thanks
Alastair

Ah, right. OK, the IPv6 NextDNS addresses do not require linking, they are unique to your configuration profile. IPv4, on the other hand, does require to be linked (is not unique so needs an identifier).
