    Last Updated:Mar 22, 2024

    Reserves an IPv6 CIDR block.

    Operation description

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

    1. Call the AllocateVpcIpv6Cidr operation to reserve the IPv6 CIDR block.
    2. 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.

    		cn-hangzhou
    ClientTokenstringNo

    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.
