# Remove IPv6 address range

`GET /ipv6_range_remove`

This function removes an IPv6 address range from the server.

**Note:**

* This function **cannot** modify the server's shared IPv6 address. To update that address, modify [the `/etc/wwwacct.conf` file](https://go.cpanel.net/advancedinstall), or use WHM's [_Basic WebHost Manager Setup_](https://go.cpanel.net/whmdocsBasicasisWebHostManagerSetup) interface (_Home >> Server Configuration >> Basic WebHost Manager Setup_).
* 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.
