How to use ipv6 in Java Lambda functions?

Given that ipv6 is now supported in aws lambda, I have this code-

System.setProperty("java.net.preferIPv6Addresses", "true");
InetAddress ipAddress = Inet6Address.getByName("www.googleapis.com");
logger.info("ip is {}", ipAddress.getHostAddress());

and yet, the hostname is resolving to an ipv4. Note that I am deploying my function as an image with base public.ecr.aws/lambda/java:21. When I run the code locally or on an ec2 instance, I see ipv6 address but on lambda, I see ipv4 address.

FWIW, I have also tried java runtime version 17 (as opposed to a docker image) but I still can't make lambda resolve to an ipv6 address.

Hello.

This update seems to allow Lambda connected to VPC to use IPv6, but is your Lambda connected to VPC?

Of course :) and I can see "Allow IPv6 traffic = true" in the VPC config of the lambda

The code below is in Python, but in that case I was able to obtain IPv6. Therefore, you can check the IPv6 address with Lambda as well.

import json
import socket

def lambda_handler(event, context):
    try:
        ipv6_address = socket.getaddrinfo("www.googleapis.com", None, socket.AF_INET6)[0][4][0]

        print(f"IPv6 address for www.googleapis.com: {ipv6_address}")
    except socket.gaierror as e:
        print(f"Error getting IPv6 address: {e}")

Is IPv6 linked to VPC?
