- In a target group, if there is no healthy target, all requests are routed to all targets. For example, if you point a listener at a target group containing a single service that has a long initialization phase (during which the health checks would fail), requests will reach the service while it is still starting up. - In a target group, if there is no healthy target, all requests are routed to all targets.

- As of December 2016, although it has been announced as coming soon, ALBs [do not yet support IPv6](https://aws.amazon.com/about-aws/whats-new/2016/12/announcing-internet-protocol-version-6-support-for-ec2-instances-in-amazon-virtual-private-cloud/). Even if the ALB is launched in an IPv6-enabled VPC and subnet, it will only have IPv4 addressing.
