Since your network has IPv6, I fail to see the issue. Nobody is anywhere near being able to go single-stack on IPv6, so AWS is just another network your customers will continue to reach over v4. So what? Heck, if v6 support from a cloud hosting company is so important, I see a great business

Disagree, and so does AWS. IPv6 has a huge utility: being a universal, inter-region management network (a network that unites traffic between regions on public and private netblocks). Plus, at least the CDN and ELBs should be dual-stack, since more and more ISPs are turning on IPv6. On Sun,

If your traffic is small, you could setup a VyOS box. You can still get redundancy by having two switches, each one connected to an upstream provider receiving a default route. Then hookup your VyOS router to each switch and receive full routes to that. You will need a /29 subnet from your

Remember this: 1) for inbound traffic there will be no difference at all. 2) routers will ignore a static route if the link is down. If you can get BFD from the providers then even better. So you can emulate 99% of what you get with full routes by loading in static routes. A simple example
