Hello.
As you know, to set up IPv6 with the AWS management console, you need to associate IPv6 with the VPC where EC2 is running and attach it to EC2.
You can configure IPv6 for VPC and EC2 by following the steps in the document below.
https://docs.aws.amazon.com/vpc/latest/userguide/vpc-migrate-ipv6.html
After configuration, you may need to enable IPv6 on the network interface on the EC2 OS.

As an aside, I made a Lightsail instance with a recent image (Amazon Linux 2023 or Amazon Linux 2), and IPv6 just worked. Which solved the problem I was actually aiming for - being able to connect to a computer on Starlink, which seems to use CGNAT for IPv4, but a native IPv6connection. Lightsail has virtually no dashboard and is considerably simpler than EC2 to launch, if less capable.
