IPv6 connectivity for Tasmanian Cloud resources
Coming Soon
IPv6 support is currently under development. This page outlines our planned offerings.
Overview
We're working on adding IPv6 connectivity to our infrastructure. This will enable your resources to communicate over IPv6 networks, supporting modern internet protocols and future-proofing your deployments.
Planned Features
IPv6 Addressing
We're planning to provide:
- IPv6 address allocation — Assign IPv6 addresses to your instances
- /64 subnets — Full subnet for your use
- IPv6-only networks — For modern workloads
Dual Stack
The system will support dual-stack (IPv4 + IPv6) connectivity:
| Feature | IPv4 | IPv6 |
|---|---|---|
| Instance addressing | ✅ Available | 🚧 Coming |
| Load balancer frontends | ✅ Available | 🚧 Coming |
| DNS A records | ✅ Available | 🚧 Coming |
| DNS AAAA records | N/A | 🚧 Coming |
| Egress to internet | ✅ Available | 🚧 Coming |
Use Cases
| Use Case | Description |
|---|---|
| Modern applications | Native IPv6 support for new deployments |
| IoT devices | Massive address space for device networks |
| Compliance | Meet IPv6 readiness requirements |
| Global reach | Connect to IPv6-only networks and services |
What We're Solving
- Future-proofing — Prepare for IPv4 exhaustion
- Modern protocols — Support the latest internet standards
- IoT scaling — Massive address space for connected devices
- Compliance — Meet government and enterprise IPv6 requirements
