(rfc4339) X-BeenThere: freebsd-current@freebsd.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.5 Precedence: list List-Id: Discussions about the use of FreeBSD-current List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , X-List-Received-Date: Fri, 07 Dec 2007 22:13:37 -0000 Hey, RFC 4339 talks about how to assign IPv6 hosts with DNS servers through RA or DHCPv6. I want to push IPv6 DNS server addresses (wel, only one actuallty) out to a few clients on my home network, to test using IPv6-only hosts. I already use rtadvd in the base to hand out IPv6 addresses, but is there a way to have it push out DNS server adresses as well? I've been googling my ass off, but it gives little to no results, and rtadvd.conf file doesn't say anything about this option. The above RFC part about RA (snippet): "3.1. RA Option The RA approach defines a new ND option, called the RDNSS option, that contains a recursive DNS server address [6]. Existing ND transport mechanisms (i.e., advertisements and solicitations) are used. This works in the same way that nodes learn about routers and prefixes. An IPv6 host can configure the IPv6 addresses of one or more RDNSSes via RA message periodically sent by a router or solicited by a Router Solicitation (RS)." I'm running 7.0-BETA4 by the way.. If rtadvd does not yet support this function, will it in the future? If not, I have to use DHCPv6? What is the best DHCP6 server? I'm used to ISC's DHCPD, does it have a v6 version in ports? I see the WIDE-DHCPv6, is that the de-facto standard? Thanks in advance for your replies.. -- Kind regards, Angelo Höngens The Netherlands
