IPv6 validation and compliance
Vault Enterprise supports IPv6 in compliance with OMB Mandate M-21-07 and Federal IPv6 policy requirements for the following operating systems and storage backends.
Self-attested testing covers functionality related to HSM, FIPS 140-2, and HSM/FIPS 140-2.
| Operating system | OS version | Validation | Vault version |
|---|---|---|---|
| FreeBSD | N/A | N/A | Untested |
| Linux | Amazon Linux (versions 2023) | Self-attested | ent-1.18+ |
| Linux | openSUSE Leap (version 15.6) | Self-attested | ent-1.18+ |
| Linux | RHEL (versions 8.10, 9.4) | Self-attested | ent-1.18+ |
| Linux | SUSE SLES (version 15.6) | Self-attested | ent-1.18+ |
| Linux | Ubuntu (versions 20.04, 24.04) | Self-attested | ent-1.18+ |
| MacOS | N/A | N/A | Untested |
| NetBSD | N/A | N/A | Untested |
| OpenBSD | N/A | N/A | Untested |
| Windows | N/A | N/A | Untested |
IPv6 limitations for Windows
IPv6 does not work with external plugins (plugins not built into Vault) when running on Windows in server mode because they default to IPv4 and Vault cannot override that behavior.
| Backend storage system | Validation | Vault version |
|---|---|---|
| Consul | N/A | Untested |
| Integrated Raft storage | Self-attested | ent-1.18+ |
Auto unsealing and HSM support
Hardware Security Module (HSM) support reduces the operational complexity of securing unseal keys by delegating the responsibility of securing unseal keys to trusted devices or services (instead of humans). At startup, Vault connects to the delegate device or service and provides an encrypted root key for decryption.
Vault implements HSM support with the following features:
| Feature | Introduced |
|---|---|
| Auto unsealing | Vault 0.9 |
| Entropy augmentation | Vault 1.3 |
| Seal wrapping | Vault 0.9 |
The following table outlines the implementation status of HSM-related features for partners products and the minimum Vault version required for verified functionality.

External key management (EKMS)
Vault centrally manages and automates encryption keys across environments so customers can manage external encryption keys used in third party services and products with the following plugins:
| Abbreviation | Full plugin name |
|---|---|
| EKMMSSQL | Vault EKM provider for SQL server |
| KV | Key/Value secrets engine |
| KMSE | Key Management secrets engine |
| KMIP | KMIP secrets engine |
| PKCS#11 | PKCS#11 provider |
| Transit | Transit secrets engine |
Vault verified vs HCP Vault verified
HCP Vault verified integrations work with the current version HCP Vault Dedicated. Self-managed Vault instances must meet the required minimum version for verification guarantees.
The table below indicates the plugin support for partner products, the verification status for HCP Vault Dedicated and the minimum Vault version required for verified behavior in self-managed Vault instances:
