This section describes how to configure the DNS and NIS name services to support IPv6 services.
Note - LDAP supports IPv6 without requiring IPv6-specific configuration tasks.
For full details for administering DNS, NIS, and LDAP, refer to the System Administration Guide: Naming and Directory Services (DNS, NIS, and LDAP).
host-name IN AAAA host-address
host-address IN PTR hostname
For detailed information on DNS administration, refer to System Administration Guide: Naming and Directory Services (DNS, NIS, and LDAP).
Example 5-6 DNS Reverse Zone File
This example shows an IPv6 address in the reverse zone file.
$ORIGIN ip6.int. 8.2.5.0.2.1.e.f.f.f.9.2.0.0.a.0.6.5.2.9.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.2.0.0.0 \ IN PTR vallejo.Eng.apex.COM.
You can use the nslookup command to display IPv6 name service information.
% /usr/sbin/nslookup
The default server name and address appear, followed by the nslookup command's angle bracket prompt.
>set q=any >host-name
>set q=AAAA hostname
Example 5-7 Using nslookup to Display IPv6 Information
This example shows the results of nslookup in an IPv6 network environment.
% /usr/sbin/nslookup Default Server: dnsserve.local.com Address: 10.10.50.85 > set q=AAAA > host85 Server: dnsserve.local.com Address: 10.10.50.85 host85.local.com IPv6 address = 2::9256:a00:fe12:528 > exit
In this procedure, you use the nslookup command to display PTR records for DNS IPv6.
% /usr/sbin/nslookup
The default server name and address display, followed by the nslookup command's angle bracket prompt.
>set q=PTR
Example 5-8 Using nslookup to Display PTR Records
The following example shows the PTR record display from the nslookup command.
% /usr/sbin/nslookup Default Server: space1999.Eng.apex.COM Address: 192.168.15.78 > set q=PTR > 8.2.5.0.2.1.e.f.f.f.0.2.0.0.a.0.6.5.2.9.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.2.0.0.0.ip6.int 8.2.5.0.2.1.e.f.f.f.0.2.0.0.a.0.6.5.2.9.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.2.0.0.0.ip6.int name = vallejo.ipv6.Eng.apex.COM ip6.int nameserver = space1999.Eng.apex.COM > exit
In this procedure, you use the ypmatch command to display IPv6 information through NIS:
% ypmatch hostname hosts .byname
The information about the specified hostname is displayed.
