Hi all,

Im playing with setting up ipv6 on a server atm what i cant seem to find is do i actually need 2 create a second set of nameservers with the ipv6 addresses or is adding the aaaa record all you need to do:

current setup only ipv4
ns1.domain.com xx.xx.xx.xx
ns2.domain.com xx.xx.xx.xx

So should it be:
ns1.domain.com xx.xx.xx.xx
ns2.domain.com xx.xx.xx.xx
and
ns1.domain.com xxxx:xxxx:xxxx:xxxx:xxxx:xxxx:xxxx:xxxx
ns2.domain.com xxxx:xxxx:xxxx:xxxx:xxxx:xxxx:xxxx:xxxx
 
You shouldn't need to have a separate set of nameservers, either physical or virtual, but you do need your nameservers to have ipV6 addresses as well as ipV4 addresses. You should probably have those addresses set up at your registrar as well; I'm not sure, as I've not done it yet. Anyone else know?

for .nl domain we need to create glue record that i do know, so basicly what you say is if i create the aaaa records that should work ?
 
Thats correct. You only need to add the AAAA records for the nameservers like the normal A records.

Make sure you have named listening on ipv6 too and ipv4/6 glue records are required if you want to use the same nameservers as the domain itself.
 
Ok great i wanted to be sure glue records are indeed required so that not the problem

if it is off topic let me know but does any know how the development of da goes if it is about ipv6 with server ip so that all accounts by default have an ipv4 and ipv6 becouse now only the ipv4 adress is auto created becouse you cant add a second shared server ip.
It is not really great to every time manualy add the ipv6 adres to the accounts
