Features & Capabilities

SixIndicator is a lightweight Chrome extension designed to visually indicate whether a website is accessed via IPv6 or IPv4. A simple icon appears in the browser toolbar, allowing users to quickly determine the IP protocol used for requests on the current site. Clicking the icon expands detailed information, including the number of requests made per domain and whether each was served over IPv6 or IPv4. This tool is especially useful for network administrators, developers, or anyone interested in monitoring their internet traffic at a glance. SixIndicator provides seamless insight without overwhelming the user, helping improve understanding of network behaviors directly from the browser.

The UI design is better, and it would be even better if the domain name can be copied.

Is SixIndicator Safe?

Risk impact

Risk impact measures the level of extra permissions an extension has access to. A low risk impact extension cannot do much harms, whereas a high risk impact extension can do a lot of damage like stealing your password, bypassing your security settings, and accessing your personal data. High risk impact extensions are not necessarily malicious. However, if they do turn malicious, they can be very harmful.

SixIndicator requires some sensitive permissions that could impact your browser and data security. Exercise caution before installing.

Risk impact analysis details

Risk likelihood

Risk likelihood measures the probability that a Firefox add-on may turn malicious. This is determined by the publisher and the Firefox add-on reputation on Firefox Add-ons Store, the amount of time the Firefox add-on has been around, and other signals about the Firefox add-on. Our algorithms are not perfect, and are subject to change as we discover new ways to detect malicious extensions. We recommend that you always exercise caution when installing a Firefox add-on.

SixIndicator is probably trust-worthy. Prefer other publishers if available. Exercise caution when installing this add-on.
