How Do I Enable the IPv6 EIP Function?

After the IPv6 EIP function is enabled, you will obtain an extra IPv6 EIP. External IPv6 addresses can access cloud resources through this IPv6 EIP. To enable the IPv6 EIP function, perform the following steps:

1. Enable the IPv6 EIP function.
   • For an existing EIP

     On the EIPs page of the Network Console, locate the target EIP, choose More > Enable IPv6 EIP in the Operation column.

     

   • For a new EIP

     On the Buy EIP page, select Enable IPv6 Internet access.

     

2. Go to the BCS console, locate the BCS instance to which the EIP is bound, and choose More > Change Access Address. Confirm that the bound EIP is the same as the EIP for which the IPv6 EIP function has been enabled.
   

   This step is required for both existing and new BCS instances.
