Can I add a custom DNS entry using an IPv6 address?
IPv6Yes. Beginning with CDRouter 6.0 CDRouter's internal DNS servers can be configured with mixed lists of IPv4 and IPv6 addresses for each hostname entry. Lists of IPv4 and/or IPv6 addresses should be placed in quotes.
Examples:
testvar dnsHostname1 foo.test.com testvar dnsIp1 5.5.5.5 testvar dnsHostname2 ipv6host.test.com testvar dnsIp2 3001:4860:0:2222::68 testvar dnsHostname3 test.qacafe.com testvar dnsIp3 “5.5.5.5 3001:cafe::1 7.7.7.7”
These entries will appear in the DNS servers for both the wanDnsServer entry and the wanBackupDnsServer entry.
