Does NiFi Site-to-Site support IPv6?

Can a Remote Process Group be configured to point at another NiFi instance using the http://[ip:v6:add:ress:here]:8080/nifi syntax?

Update

On a Mac, when I try to access http://[::1] I get the default webserver "It works!" message. When I try to access http://[::1]:8080/nifi, I get ERR_CONNECTION_REFUSED ... so clearly NiFi (Jetty?) is receiving the request, but just not honoring it.

Is there a setting to change this behavior? It's a little odd that the protocol wouldn't be supported just because (...?)

I'd love to have a more experienced / knowledge person comment on the technical ramifications of this, but I found that IPv6 access can be enabled.

How to

In the nifi/conf/bootstrap.conf file, change ...

java.arg.4=-Djava.net.preferIPv4Stack=true

... to ...

java.arg.4=-Djava.net.preferIPv4Stack=false

And obviously restart (if NiFi is currently running).
