        before you proceed, you may want to know that A6 is
now experimental
        (so in real life you would use AAAA).  RFC3363

Itojun

Yes, I do know that A6 is experimental. I am already
supporting
AAAA. I feel that A6 is not being deployed because not much
is known
about it. I still feel it will be deployed eventually. When
will be
next action be taken on deciding this ?

But I am not finding the format of A6 replies, for both
forward and
backward queries. In particular, will the Header, Authority,
Additional
Record section be modified ? In what way will the new Answer
section will
le different ? What is the value of DNAME (as CNAME is 5) ?
What will be the
length of Answer section, and its internal values ?

Regards,
Sarang.
