AWS announces IPv6 tiered VPCs and subnets

AWS announces IPv6 tiered VPCs and subnets that allows customers to create VPCs and subnets of different sizes using IPv6 CIDRs. With this capability, customers can now create VPCs in sizes between /44 and /60, and subnets in sizes between /44 and /64, in increments of /4\. Before today, AWS supported one standard IPv6 CIDR block size of /56 for VPC and /64 for subnet, whereas IPv4 CIDR block size were flexible for both VPCs and subnets. Customers require tiered VPCs for growth planning, and can use a single contiguous CIDR block across thousands of smaller (E.g., /60) VPCs to optimize CIDR allocations. Alternatively, customers that want to match on-premise network designs of a logical network can create a large (E.g., /44) VPC and have a subnet of the same size in it. IPv6 tiered VPCs and subnets is now available in all AWS commercial regions and AWS GovCloud (US) regions.
