IPv6 DNS Advertisements

DNS client configuration can be handled by the standard Router Advertisement Daemon (radvd) – apt-get install radvd

Edit /etc/radvd.conf on your Linux Router and insert the following at the end of the file to use Google’s DNS Caching server:

RDNS 2001:4860:4860::8888
{
};

On your Linux clients install rdnssd. To automatically add the advertised IPv6 DNS servers to your /etc/resolv.conf

The /etc/resolv.conf now contains both IPv4 and IPv6 entries. Typically a DHCP client is adding the IPv4 DNS server entries, this can be prevented by removing ‘domain-name-servers’ from the ‘request’ line in dhclient.conf
