A public beta for IPv6 is now available in EU-DE.

During the public beta, the VPC, ELB, ECS, and AS services are supported. For ECS, the public beta begins with the C4 and S3 flavors in AZ 2 and AZ 3, with additional flavors to be introduced in the coming weeks and months.

As part of a dual-stack network, IPv6 and IPv4 ECS instances will be able to communicate with each other.

The public beta is expected to continue until March 31, 2024, after which IPv6 will be fully available for these services.

You can find a short how-to guide for the configuration and usage of ipv6 in our community portal.
