ipFamily
Specify which IP family is used to assign Kubernetes pod and service IP addresses. If you don't specify a value, ipv4
is used by default. You can only specify an IP family when you create a cluster and can't change this value once the cluster is created. If you specify ipv6
, the VPC and subnets that you specify for cluster creation must have both IPv4
and IPv6
CIDR blocks assigned to them. You can't specify ipv6
for clusters in China Regions.
You can only specify ipv6
for 1.21
and later clusters that use version 1.10.1
or later of the Amazon VPC CNI add-on. If you specify ipv6
, then ensure that your VPC meets the requirements listed in the considerations listed in Assigning IPv6 addresses to pods and services in the Amazon EKS User Guide. Kubernetes assigns services IPv6
addresses from the unique local address range (fc00::/7)
. You can't specify a custom IPv6
CIDR block. Pod addresses are assigned from the subnet's IPv6
CIDR.
