Description

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.
