James Knott replied to Sammo's discussion 'Native IPv6 Problem - no DNS query when using firefox and IE'"You can use "Unique Local Addresses": http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unique_local_address
However, since this is the gogoNET site, why not get a subnet from them? You can have a /56 subnet, which provides 2^72 addresses in 256…"
Sammo replied to Sammo's discussion 'Native IPv6 Problem - no DNS query when using firefox and IE'"I don't have any global address
If for local IPv6 address, Which IP subnet should I use?(Like the 192.168.0.0 subnet of IPv4) Is there anything like this in IPv6?"
Sammo replied to Sammo's discussion 'Native IPv6 Problem - no DNS query when using firefox and IE'"Sorry for confusing
I know there are a public domain testing.com on Internet
But I just use testing.com as a local domain on my DNS
So that the local DNS will resove the AAAA record directly without forwarding the request"
Carl Holzhauer replied to Sammo's discussion 'Native IPv6 Problem - no DNS query when using firefox and IE'"How?
[carl@mars ~]$ ping6 testing.comping6:
hostname nor servname provided, or not known
It has an A record, but no AAAA"
James Knott replied to Sammo's discussion 'Native IPv6 Problem - no DNS query when using firefox and IE'"Why are you using a link local address for DNS? While those addresses can be used, they're awkward to use, as you also have to specify the interface. Do you not have a proper glabal address on your subnet? I run dnsmasq on my…"
Sammo replied to Sammo's discussion 'Native IPv6 Problem - no DNS query when using firefox and IE'"Yes it is a DNS server.
And I even tried to "ping6 testing.com" and the result is positive."
Carl Holzhauer replied to Sammo's discussion 'Native IPv6 Problem - no DNS query when using firefox and IE'"Same problem though...that FE80 address you're asking for DNS lookups has no idea what you're looking for. Did you check to make sure that address you're querying for DNS is actually a DNS server?"
Sammo replied to Sammo's discussion 'Native IPv6 Problem - no DNS query when using firefox and IE'"Oh sorry I didn't mention. The whole setup is not go to the public. Only internal testing."
Carl Holzhauer replied to Sammo's discussion 'Native IPv6 Problem - no DNS query when using firefox and IE'"Your DNS server doesn't have any records for testing.com
What does fe80::20c:29ff:fedc:2aa2 point to on your network?"
Sammo posted a discussionNative IPv6 Problem - no DNS query when using firefox and IE
I am a newbie of IPv6 and I am setting up a Linux apache and bind server to test the behaviour of Windows XP,Vista, 7 and Mac OS X. I have setup a apache and bind already and they were tested individually. I used Firefox and IE to access the apache page by type in the IPv6 address and the page was showed correctly. And I have tried to query the AAAA record of a local zone "testing.com" in my Bind server using nslookup and the result is good too. However, it is strange that I cannot get it…See More
