DNS A6 chains

[Bill Manning]

A6 support is in Bindv9, which is not yet released.  Testing is underway.
When it is stable, the servers for the ip6.int zone will be upgraded.


% I want to setup A6 chains for us and our leaf sites. I was wondering 
% if the 6bone's nameserver is capable of resolving A6 records, so I could 
% add a proper referral to 6bone.net or somewhere else? Something like this:
% 
% $ORIGIN ip6.join.uni-muenster.de 
% leafsite0100    IN      A6      24      0:0:100::       join.ip6.6bone.net.
% 
% ,while 6bone's nameserver would respond with the first 24 bit of JOIN's
% assigned prefix 3ffe:400:: if queried for join.ip6.6bone.net. 
% 
% Are such references possible now or in the near future? 
% 
% Thanks,
%     Christian
