Explanation / Answer

In general network diagram, we don't actually show IP (IPv4 or IPv6) addresses. Generally, it has all the network devices, security devices, systems or VMs, etc. But if you want to add IP addresses in diagram then the best way to do that is to have IP address or subnet written on the link (whatever subnet those two devices are using for that link).

For example, you can use an IP subnet on the link connecting Router and Firewall. If they are using the IPv6 network, then use that.

Now having said that, there is another point in this diagram which is the Internet. In that case, you have two aspects here: 1. Remote Access VPN and 2. Normal Internet (IPSec for VPN gateway will be the part of this). So in this case, you do have to insert the public IP address (not the subnet) on the link which is coming out from Router and have to put the IP address for remote VPN (with public URL) on the link which is coming out of remote access router.

Except this, you might be having IPv6 addresses (public) for DMZ network which are actually the NAT'd IP addresses and you can mention them in a box on the top right corner of this diagram.

Now for the private IPv6 addresses which are there for network and security devices, can be written on top of the devices. And the IPv6 private subnets, systems are using, can be written after the switch (here workgroup switches) and on top of the link.
