IPv6 Diagnostic and Troubleshooting
DNS Resolver for IPv6

Assume that the above, configured DNS server supports an IPv6 device having
a host name of “mars-1” (and an IPv6 address of fe80::215:60ff:fe7a:adc0) in
the “mygroup.procurve.net” domain. In this case you can use the device's host
name alone to ping the device because the mygroup.procurve.net domain has
been configured as the domain name on the switch and the address of a DNS
server residing in that domain is also configured on the switch. The commands
for these steps are as follows:

ProCurve(config)# ip dns server priority 1 2001:db8::127:10

ProCurve(config)# ip dns domain-name mygroup.procurve.net

ProCurve(config)# ping6 mars-1

fe80::215:60ff:fe7a:adc0 is alive, time = 1 ms

Figure 9-3. Example of Configuring for a Local DNS Server and Pinging a Registered Device

However, for the same “mars-1” device, if mygroup.procurve.net was not the
configured domain name, you would have to use the fully qualified domain
name for the device named mars-1:

ProCurve# ping6 mars-1.mygroup.procurve.net

For further information and examples on using the DNS feature, refer to “DNS
Resolver” in appendix C, “Troubleshooting”, in the current Management and
Configuration Guide

for your switch.

Viewing the Current Configuration

Use the

show ip dns command to view the current DNS server configuration.

Use the

show run command to view both the current DNS server addresses

and the current DNS domain name in the active configuration.

Operating Notes

In software release K.13.01, DNS addressing is not configurable from a
DHCPv6 server.
