 Listening IP
 ------------
 
+By default the `pveproxy` and `spiceproxy` daemons listen on the wildcard
+address and accept connections from both IPv4 and IPv6 clients.

 By setting `LISTEN_IP` in `/etc/default/pveproxy` you can control to which IP
 address the `pveproxy` and `spiceproxy` daemons bind. The IP-address needs to
 be configured on the system.

+Setting the `sysctl` `net.ipv6.bindv6only` to the non-default `1` will cause
+the daemons to only accept connection from IPv6 clients, while  usually also
+causing lots of other issues. If you set this configuration we recommend to
+either remove the `sysctl` setting, or set the `LISTEN_IP` to `0.0.0.0` (which
+will only allow IPv4 clients).

 WARNING: The nodes in a cluster need access to `pveproxy` for communication,
 possibly on different sub-nets. It is **not recommended** to set `LISTEN_IP` on
 clustered systems.
 
+To apply the change you need to either reboot your node or fully restart the

+
+----
+systemctl restart pveproxy.service spiceproxy.service

+NOTE: Unlike `reload`, a `restart` of the pveproxy service can interrupt some
+long-running worker processes, for example a running console or shell from a
+virtual guest. So, please use a maintenance window to bring this change in
+effect.

+The insecure SSL versions 2 and 3 are unconditionally disabled for pveproxy.
+TLS versions below 1.1 are disabled by default on recent OpenSSL versions,
