Cloudflare Proxy Support
How Hypervisor Preserves Real Visitor IPs
Hypervisor automatically handles proxying your user's real ip by employing the following mechanisms:
- Identifying Cloudflare's network ranges
- Configuring your web server to extract the original visitor IP
- Providing the true client IP to your applications
Automatic IP Updates
We maintain your Cloudflare IP configuration automatically through:
✅ Daily updates - Management Server refreshes Cloudflare's IP ranges every 24 hours
✅ Instant propagation - Changes take effect immediately
✅ Full IPv4/IPv6 support - All Cloudflare networks are included
Manual Control
While automatic updates are sufficient for most users, you can manually refresh Cloudflare's IPs at any time:
hvcli app:update-cloudflare
When to Run Manually:
- After changing Cloudflare proxy settings
- If you suspect IP changes aren't propagating
- When troubleshooting IP-related issues
Expected output:
✓ Cloudflare IP configuration up to date
IPv4 ranges: 24
IPv6 ranges: 12
