The default bridge mode does not support IPv6
Taking note of some stuff:
Basically with t2.micro, we can only have 1 additional ENI, while with small-large we can only do 2 additional. Effectively if we switch to the awsvpc networking mode we will have to allocate a full small instance to running a maximum of 2 services each assuming we use small+ base instance size. |

In order to support IPv6 on AWS we had to do a major rework of the networking configuration of the VPC and ECS clusters.
In case you like to enjoy some some trivia about why IPv6 support is so weak in AWS, check these links:
More details follow:
In order to get the networking to work properly in ECS, we setup the container host to make use of the public network to have direct access to the internet, while the ECS container itself uses the private NATed network. This is the desired configuration because we don't want to directly expose the container to the internet, but rather map the container port to the public internet accessible endpoint via load balancer.
