Description

Some known things to work on:

https://wikitech.wikimedia.org/wiki/News/Cloud_VPS_VXLAN_IPv6_migration
https://wikitech.wikimedia.org/wiki/Help:Security_groups (exposing an IPv6 to the internet is just about enabling the support in the security group)
https://wikitech.wikimedia.org/wiki/Help:Manage_floating_IP_addresses_assigned_to_Cloud_VPS_instances (basically: no need for IPv6)
https://wikitech.wikimedia.org/wiki/Help:Using_a_web_proxy_to_reach_Cloud_VPS_servers_from_the_internet (no support for IPv6 in the proxy. IPv4 works as usual.)
https://wikitech.wikimedia.org/wiki/Help:Cloud_VPS_Instances (add network option)
