IPv6 support for AWS Elemental MediaPackage V2 control plane

AWS Elemental MediaPackage V2 control plane APIs support dual-stack (IPv4 and IPv6) endpoints. This enables you to make API requests using either IPv4 or IPv6 protocols for management operations such as creating channel groups, channels, and origin endpoints.

Note

IPv6 support applies to control plane operations only. Content ingest and delivery endpoints continue to use IPv4. IPv6 support for the data plane is planned for a future release.

IPv6 endpoints

MediaPackage V2 provides the following dual-stack endpoints:

  • Standard endpoint: mediapackagev2.region.api.aws

  • FIPS endpoint (FIPS-enabled regions): mediapackagev2-fips.region.api.aws

Your existing applications continue to work with the original IPv4-only endpoints (mediapackagev2.region.amazonaws.com). For a complete list of available endpoints, see MediaPackage endpoints and quotas in the AWS General Reference.

Using IPv6 endpoints

To use the IPv6 endpoints, specify the dual-stack endpoint URL when making API calls.

AWS CLI example:

aws mediapackagev2 list-channel-groups \
    --endpoint-url https://mediapackagev2.us-east-1.api.aws

SDK example (Python):

import boto3

client = boto3.client(
    'mediapackagev2',
    endpoint_url='https://mediapackagev2.us-east-1.api.aws'
)
