HAPROXY.cfg - Whats the correct notation for an IPV6 address when used in a backend?












0














My haproxy is using a backend with a IPV6, but I am unsure if the IPV6 address needs to be enclosed in [...].



haproxy.cfg (haproxy 1.8 on a Ubuntu 18 server)



frontend www-http
bind :::80 v4v6
reqadd X-Forwarded-Proto: http

backend uix_cluster
mode http
balance roundrobin
option forwardfor
server [xxxx:xxxx:x:xx:xxxx:0000:0000:0001]:80 check
