IPv6 Support for Network Access in MongoDB Atlas

Hi everyone,

I’m currently using MongoDB Atlas and have been managing IP access through the Network Access section by whitelisting specific IP addresses. I’ve recently deployed a new server that only supports IPv6, but I noticed that Atlas doesn’t currently support IPv6 addresses in the IP Access List.

This limitation is blocking my server from connecting to the database. I have two questions:

  1. Is there any official timeline or update on when IPv6 support will be added to MongoDB Atlas Network Access?
  2. Are there any recommended workarounds in the meantime? For instance, would using a Cloudflare ZTNA Tunnel or a NAT Gateway be considered safe and reliable for production use? That said, since MongoDB Atlas is a managed service and I can’t install cloudflared on its side, I’m unsure how or where the tunnel could be terminated.
