   > @weizhouapache yes, IPv6 is not pre-allocated in VPC. Even now it is 
assigned only when the first IPv6 tier is created. But **IPv4** gets allocated 
to a VPC as soon as it is created. In most cases this allocated IPv4 can be 
from a vlan range which does not have a corresponding IPv6 range.
   
   @shwstppr 
   OK, so for now 
   (1) if internet protocol of vpc offering is dualstack, allocate an Ipv4 and 
ipv6 address when create first vpc tier
   (2) if internal protocol of vpc offering is ipv4, allocate an ipv4 address 
when create first vpc tier.
   
   My idea is, in case 2, when create a vpc tier (second tier) with ipv6, try 
to allocate an ipv6 address from same vlan as ipv4. if ok then all are good, if 
not then throw an exception like "unable to fetch public ipv6 address for this 
vpc, please contact admin to add an ipv6 range". it is much easier and more 
flexible .
   
   updating vpc to another offering is an option. but the public Ipv4 address 
will be changed to another vlan range with both ipv4 and ipv6, which might 
cause some issues and is complicated.
