Worker Rate Limiting API Not Triggering for IPv6
We noticed when using the Rate Limit api/binding for workers that the rate limit never seemed to trigger for IPv6 traffic. It only triggered for IPv4 traffic. This was tested using cf-connecting-ip and x-real-ip as the rate limiter key. Is there a different header or method we can use to reliably rate limit by IP? Not sure if our IPv4 settings for the site are causing the issues.
We are aware that shared IP's is a common issue with rate limiting per IP, for our use case this is not an issue.
