#17457: dnsmasq: add AAAA DNS record for the router hostname, for local ipv6
lookups
-------------------------------------------------+-------------------------
Reporter: braveheart_leo@… | Owner: developers
Type: enhancement | Status: new
Priority: normal | Milestone: Chaos
Component: base system | Calmer (trunk)
Keywords: dnsmasq ipv6 ping6 lookup host- | Version: Trunk
record |
-------------------------------------------------+-------------------------
Currently, doing ''ping6 ROUTER_NAME.lan'' or ''ping6 ROUTER_NAME''
results in an ''unknown host'' reply from a Linux box, or ''ping6: bad
address 'ROUTER_NAME.lan' '' on the router.
This is because the AAAA DNS record for the router is not automatically
registered with dnsmasq, along with its A DNS record, like this:
{{{
/tmp/etc/dnsmasq.conf:
[...]
host-record=ROUTER_NAME.lan,ROUTER_NAME,192.168.1.1,fdxx:xxxx::1
[...]
}}}
I hope that this may be implemented.
