# Remove IPv6 address range from account

`GET /ipv6_disable_account`

This function removes the IPv6 address from an account.

**Notes:**

- When you disable IPv6 on an account, the system unbinds that IPv6 address from your server and the account loses the address. If you enable IPv6 on that account again, the system assigns it a different IPv6 address.
- For all of cPanel & WHM's features to function properly on IPv6, the `cpsrvd` daemon **must** listen on IPv6 addresses. To enable this functionality, select On for the *Listen on IPv6 Addresses* setting in the *System* section of WHM's [Tweak Settings](https://go.cpanel.net/whmdocsTweakSettings) interface (*WHM >> Home >> Server Configuration >> Tweak Settings*).

**Important:**

When you disable the [Web Server role](https://go.cpanel.net/howtouseserverprofiles#roles), the system **disables** this function.
