Then IPv4       and IPv6 are requested at the same time and if IPv6 does not give an answer       the fallback to IPv4 is done. Otherwise the traffic is primarily exchanged via       IPv6 which is in the sense of promoting IPv6 traffic.              [1] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Happy_Eyeballs       [2] https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc4213              Best regards               Alisha               ...
