Assistance Required: Cloudflare IPV6 over IPV4 Issue Affecting API Geolocation Accuracy
The issue arises specifically when Cloudflare’s Orange Cloud (proxy) feature is enabled. I have configured NGINX to prioritize IPv4 connections over IPv6. However, with Orange Cloud activated and requests being proxied through Cloudflare, the server consistently returns IPv6 addresses, which is causing significant problems for our system.
With Orange cloud disabled I'm getting this response:
{"ip":"136.243.82.59"}
While with CF's orange cloud enable, I'm getting this for same request from same server:
{"ip":"2a01:4f8:212:3005::2"}
