AWS Client VPN now supports connectivity to IPv6 resources

Today, AWS Client VPN announces support for remote access to IPv6 workloads, allowing customers to establish secure VPN connections to their IPv6-enabled VPC resources. This new capability enables customers to meet their compliance and IPv6 network adoption goals. Now organizations can support IPv4, IPv6, and dual-stack resource connectivity through their Client VPN endpoints.

Previously, Client VPN only supported remote access to IPv4-enabled AWS workloads. With this feature, administrators can now support IPv6-enabled resources using IPv6-only or dual-stack Client VPN endpoints. Organizations can now directly connect their remote users to IPv6 resources and maintain end-to-end IPv6-only connectivity. For example, organizations can now use IPv6-enabled devices to remotely access IPv6-enabled resources in VPC via Client VPN, preserving end-to-end IPv6 connectivity. This feature simplifies network architecture for organizations using IPv6 while preserving native protocol preferences.

This feature is available in all regions where AWS Client VPN is generally available, except the Middle East (Bahrain) Region, and comes with no additional cost. Customers can use IPv6 and dual-stack endpoints at the current endpoint per-hour price.
