How can I block IPv6 IP addresses from my website or its dedicated server? Entering the IPv6 address in cPanel's IP Blocker gives me an error message of 'Invalid IP Address Range'

  Hello, I've opened an internal case, CPANEL-9120, to report this issue. I'll update this thread with more information on the status of this case as it becomes available. In the meantime, you should be able to manually edit the .htaccess file within the directory you want to block the IPv6 address from accessing:
  order allow,deny allow from all deny from 2001:db8::a00:20ff:fea7:ccea
  Thank you.
