Add a warning about remaining IPv6 addresses
As per discussion with Erfi, I'm adding a preliminary draft message to convey that, although IPv4 addresses are used for A records, the Cloudflare-owned IPv6 will continue to be used. Which may defeat the purpose of Static IPs for CDN/Spectrum.

This guide assumes that the prefix is tied to a single Cloudflare account that has both Magic Transit and CDN properties. If you are using [prefix delegations](/byoip/concepts/prefix-delegations/), the service bindings must be [created](#2-create-service-binding) on the parent account.

As of december 2024, a Magic Transit BYOIP pool is made of IPv4 addresses. When carving out IPv4 addresses for CDN or Spectrum, DNS A records will resolve to these new IPv4 addresses. DNS AAAA records will contine to resolve to Cloudflare-owned IPv6 addresses.

You'd need to import a /48 IPv6 range to assign customer-owned IPv6 addresses as well.

1. Log in to your Cloudflare account and get your [account ID](/fundamentals/setup/find-account-and-zone-ids/) and [API token](/fundamentals/api/get-started/create-token/). The token permissions should include `Account` - `IP Prefixes` - `Edit`.
