IPv6 is not a requirement if not used within the applying host ASN. Only an unfiltered public IPv4 address is. What about the reverse situation? ↪ I.e. the host ASN applying for hosting a VM Anchor is an IPv6-only ASN. Not utilizing IPv4 in the ASN. Therefore not able to provide an unfiltered IPv4 address to the VM? To my current understanding, the latter example is an instant disqualification if applying for hosting a RIPE Atlas VM Anchor? /Chriztoffer
