    • We collect Confluence feedback from various sources, and we evaluate what we've collected when planning our product roadmap. To understand how this piece of feedback will be reviewed, see our Implementation of New Features Policy.

      NOTE: This suggestion is for Confluence Server. Using Confluence Cloud? See the corresponding suggestion.

      Problem

      The currently widely used IPv4 address pool is close to exhaustion: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IPv4_address_exhaustion. IPv6 is around already for a while, however parts of our products may (and do) break.

      Requirement

      • Add IPv6 tests for products and clarify it being supported for all parts of the products (external system connectivity, applinks, self-naming, reverse-proxying, etc).
      • Update the supported platforms documentation and explicitly specify IPv6 to be supported to avoid confusion and give support a reference point.

            We are currently investigating the effort required to achieve IPv6 compatibility for Confluence. This includes connectivity with other Atlassian products, LDAP, mail servers and the approach to Ecosystem apps.

            We expect to have an update in a few months time.

            Hi mascha-kathinka.carniel and others,
            We have begun looking into what might be needed in order to be able to support IPv6, thus I would say there has been progress on the topic, but we do not have a confirmed timeline at this point.

            Is there any plan to support IPv6 in near future?
