Thanks Marco.

First, I had to change my ORPort to 9001 with your proposed configuration because using 443 caused an error => "Could not bind to 0.0.0.0:443: Address already in use. Is Tor already running?"
Probably because my other Tor instance (hidden service) is using it.

Now I'm just waiting for the metrics to update to see if everything is as expected.

Finally, thanks for the help with IPv6 because I cannot get it to work. Somehow when I try to check IPv6 availability ( https://community.torproject.org/relay/setup/post-install/ ), I get "ping6: connect: Network is unreachable". I don't have time to set it up right now (I already spent hours last week) so I'll get back to you for that.
