AllocateVpcIpv6Cidr - Virtual Private Cloud - Alibaba Cloud Documentation Center

Reserves an IPv6 CIDR block.

Operation description

The following section describes how to allocate an IPv6 CIDR block to a virtual private cloud (VPC):

Call the AllocateVpcIpv6Cidr operation to reserve the IPv6 CIDR block.
To allocate an IPv6 CIDR block to an existing VPC, call the AssociateVpcCidrBlock operation. Set RegionId, VpcId, and IPv6CidrBlock to the IPv6 CIDR bock, and set IpVersion to ipv6. To allocate an IPv6 CIDR block when you create a VPC, call the CreateVpc operation. Set RegionId and Ipv6CidrBlock to the IPv6 CIDR block, and set EnableIpv6 to true.

Debugging

OpenAPI Explorer automatically calculates the signature value. For your convenience, we recommend that you call this operation in OpenAPI Explorer.

Request parameters

Parameter	Type	Required	Description	Example
RegionId	string	Yes	The region ID of the VPC. You can call the DescribeRegions operation to query the most recent region list.	cn-hangzhou
ClientToken	string	No	The client token that is used to ensure the idempotence of the request. You can use the client to generate the token, but you must make sure that the token is unique among different requests. The token can contain only ASCII characters. Note If you do not specify this parameter, the system automatically uses the request ID as the client token. The request ID may be different for each request.	123e4567-e89b-12d3-a456-426655440000
Ipv6Isp	string	No	The type of IPv6 CIDR block. Valid values: BGP (default) ChinaMobile ChinaUnicom ChinaTelecom Note If your Alibaba Cloud account is allowed to use single-ISP bandwidth, valid values are: ChinaTelecom, ChinaUnicom, and ChinaMobile. You can reserve only one IPv6 CIDR block of each type. After a reserved IPv6 CIDR block of a type is allocated to a VPC, you can reserve another IPv6 CIDR of the type.	BGP
AddressPoolType	string	No	The type of the IPv6 address pool. Set the value to custom. Note This parameter is required.	custom
Ipv6CidrBlock	string	No	The IPv6 CIDR block that you want to reserve.	2408:XXXX:0:a600::/56
