Hey, according to the docs, your shown snippet is the correct way to listen on IPv4 and IPv6 for express.

you can check using "railway ssh" and then run "ps aux". Any AI will tell you if it listens on IP6.

Hey, you already use :: in your code and it binds to IPv4 and IPv6.

Hey, you should reference your service using service variables and not hard code the IP address. You can see how this is done here https://docs.railway.com/guides/private-networking#using-reference-variables.

Hey, could you please elaborate on how you are whitelisting the IPv6 address? A workaround would be to use a secret for authentication that only your API and the service that is using it should know.
