Release: Elastic Beanstalk adds support for Internet Protocol Version 6 (IPv6) inbound traffic on September 4, 2024

AWS Elastic Beanstalk adds support for inbound Internet Protocol Version 6 (IPv6) traffic.

Release date: September 4, 2024

Changes

Elastic Beanstalk now supports dual-stack public service endpoints and dual-stack VPC endpoints, including VPC endpoints integrated with AWS PrivateLink.

This capability allows you to configure your Elastic Beanstalk VPC endpoints to accept dual-stack incoming traffic (via IPv6 and IPV4). You can also send requests to the Elastic Beanstalk service using the AWS CLI or the AWS SDK specifying an IPv4 endpoint or a dual-stack endpoint. For a list of public endpoints, see Elastic Beanstalk service endpoints in the Amazon Web Services General Reference.

This functionality is available in all of the AWS Commercial Regions and AWS GovCloud (US) Regions that Elastic Beanstalk supports. At this time Elastic Beanstalk dual-stack support is not available in the AWS China Regions. You can view the list of AWS Services Available by Region on the AWS Regional Services website.

For more information about Elastic Beanstalk dual-stack traffic support, see IPV6 support in the AWS Elastic Beanstalk Developer Guide. To learn more about adopting IPv6 on AWS see the whitepaper IPv6 on AWS.
