Starting today, Bring Your Own IP (BYOIP) is available in three additional AWS Regions: Europe (Spain), Europe (Zurich) and Asia Pacific (Melbourne).
BYOIP allows you to bring your own IPv4 and IPv6 addresses to AWS and advertise them on the internet. You can create Elastic IP addresses from your BYOIPv4 addresses and use them with AWS resources such as Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (Amazon EC2) instances, Network Load Balancers, and NAT gateways. The Elastic IP addresses you create from BYOIPv4 addresses work in the same way as the Elastic IP addresses you get from AWS. The BYOIPv6 addresses also work in the same way as AWS provided IPv6 addresses. For example, you can associate these IPv6 addresses to subnets, Elastic Network Interfaces (ENI), and Amazon EC2 instances within your Amazon Virtual Private Clouds (Amazon VPC). You can use your BYOIPv6 for private connectivity to your on-premises networks by advertising them over AWS Direct Connect.
With this region expansion, BYOIP is available in all commercial AWS Regions, except China (Beijing, operated by Sinnet) and China (Ningxia, operated by NWCD).
