Unless something has changed since I just happened to have checked earlier today, VPC ELBs are still IPv4-only. They return AAAA records on the ipv6 and dualstack subdomains like their classic/non-VPC counterparts (which do fully support IPv6), but the ports aren't open on the returned addresses, so it's not very useful. Maybe someone from Amazon can chime in?

+1 on this. Would appreciate someone from Amazon commenting on this. Unfortunately it looks like VPC ELBs are still IPv4 only. They have a link in the article from when they introduced IPv6 for non-VPC ELBs back in 2011. Are VPC ELBs being worked on anymore or are we going to have to move to Application Load Balancers for IPv6 support?

If you read the article, you will learn that ALB (new L7 ELB) now supports IPv6.

  ...I did read the article, what do ALBs have anything to do with what I said? Or are you just assuming that no one needs non-HTTP services running in a VPC load balanced over IPv6?

        In 80 years we're back to the 90s so relax.

    And even for HTTP services ALB doesn't completely replace ELB. Last time I looked at it, ALB didn't integrate with autoscaling groups.

      Yes, the ALB supports ASG, see: http://docs.aws.amazon.com/autoscaling/latest/userguide/attach-load-balancer-asg.html http://docs.aws.amazon.com/autoscaling/latest/userguide/atta...

Apparently ELB has supported IPv6 in VPC for a while, you just have to ask support to enable it for yours. Source: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=qy7zNaDTYGQ https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=qy7zNaDTYGQ

  Can you point out where specifically in the video they say this? Edit: 24:30 is around the point he mentions it.
