How do I disable IPv6 on Ethernet and Wifi via Intune?

Is it possible to disable IPv6 via Intune? I have Windows 10 users that have Lenovo ThinkPads. We have to access 3rd party resources via a whitelisted IP address, so I have a VPN on AWS set up that users connect to and the VPN IP is whitelisted. For some users, it shows they are connecting from their Ethernet or Wifi adapter's IPv6 address and not the IPv4 so we have to disable it. It then works once disabled, but it's a pain doing it as users are all remote. Can I do it via Intune and disable it on all users machines remotely? I can't even do it remotely for them via Teams as nothing in Control Panel lets me click on it when I do screenshare, so I've had to keep making users admins temporarily and have them disable it on their own.

    @Lee Moreau Thanks for your posting in our Q&A.

    Currently, it seems there is no such setting can be configured to disable IPv6 via intune. It is suggested to try to write a powershell script to disable ipv6 and deploy this script via intune. Please refer to the following article about deploying scripts:

    If you are interested in having an intune built-in setting, it is suggested to post in intune feedback portal. This is a place to collect customers' requirements and problems.

    Thanks for your understanding and hope it will happen in the future.
