Amazon FSx now offers customers the option to use Internet Protocol version 6 (IPv6) for access to Amazon FSx for Windows File Server file systems.
More and more customers are adopting IPv6 to mitigate IPv4 address exhaustion in their private networks or to satisfy government mandates such as the US Office of Management and Budget (OMB) M-21-07 memorandum. With this launch, customers can now access their file systems using IPv4, IPv6, or dual-stack clients without the need for complex infrastructure to handle IPv6 to IPv4 address translation.
IPv6 support for new FSx for Windows File Server file systems is now available in all AWS Commercial and AWS GovCloud (US) regions where Amazon FSx is available, with IPv6 support for existing FSx for Windows File Server file systems coming in an upcoming weekly maintenance window.
