- `"ip_version"` can be `ipv4` (A records), or `ipv6` (AAAA records) or `ipv4 or ipv6` (update one of the two, depending on the public ip found). It defaults to `ipv4 or ipv6`.
- `"ipv6_suffix"` is the IPv6 interface identifier suffix to use. It can be for example `0:0:0:0:72ad:8fbb:a54e:bedd/64`. If left empty, it defaults to no suffix and the raw public IPv6 address obtained is used in the record updating.

> Note: You could set `"ipv6_suffix"` with your permanent IPV6 address suffix (e.g., `0:0:0:0:72ad:8fbb:a54e:bedd/64` in previous example) to avoid updating the temporary IPV6 address.

🤔 I think it might be better to rephrase the bullet point above? Maybe:

  • "ipv6_suffix" is the IPv6 interface identifier suffix to use. It can be for example 0:0:0:0:72ad:8fbb:a54e:bedd/64. If left empty, it defaults to no suffix and the raw temporary IPv6 address of the machine is used in the record updating.

What do you think?? If so, we should extend this rephrasing to all providers document (it's the same bullet point word for word for all of them)
