AAAA 2001:b68:e207::3 that's nonuseful in two ways. first, get rid of those "3ffe" things. second, put these on the main name, don't make people use an alternate name. for example: ftp.freebsd.org has address 62.243.72.50 ftp.freebsd.org has address 204.152.184.73 ftp.freebsd.org has IPv6 address 2001:4f8:0:2::e or www.isc.org has address 204.152.184.88 www.isc.org has IPv6 address 2001:4f8:0:2::d or ftp.isc.org has address 204.152.184.110 ftp.isc.org has IPv6 address 2001:4f8:0:2::18 or www.netbsd.org has address 204.152.190.12 www.netbsd.org has IPv6 address 2001:4f8:4:7:2e0:81ff:fe52:9a6b > ;; ANSWER SECTION: > www.ipv6.microsoft.com. 3600 IN AAAA 2002:836b:9820::836b:9886 > www.ipv6.microsoft.com. 3600 IN A 131.107.152.134 lovely addresses. but they should be attached to www.microsoft.com, not www.ipv6.microsoft.com. this works fine and causes no problems for ipv4-only hosts. using an alternate name for ipv6 in 2004 or later is chickenhearted. -- Paul Vixie _______________________________________________ Ietf@xxxxxxxx https://www1.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/ietf
