AWS Control Tower now supports Internet Protocol Version 6 (IPv6)

AWS Control Tower and Control Catalog APIs now allow customers to use Internet Protocol version 6 (IPv6) addresses. With the new dual-stack endpoints, customers can connect to AWS Control Tower and over the public internet using IPv6, IPv4, or dual-stack clients. The existing AWS Control Tower endpoints supporting IPv4 will remain available for backwards compatibility.

The continued growth of the Internet, particularly in the areas of mobile applications, connected devices, and IoT, has spurred an industry-wide move to IPv6. IPv6 increases the number of available addresses by several orders of magnitude so customers will no longer need to manage overlapping address spaces in their Amazon Virtual Private Cloud (Amazon VPC).

Support for IPv6 on AWS Control Tower and Control Catalog API is available in all Regions where AWS Control Tower and Control Catalog API are available. For a full list of Regions where AWS Control Tower is available, see the AWS Region Table. To learn more on best practices for configuring IPv6 in your environment, visit the whitepaper on IPv6 in AWS. To learn more about AWS Control Tower, visit the AWS Control Tower User Guide.
