l You can choose any names for the VLAN and subnet.
l The VLAN ID (vid) supplied must be appropriate for your network configuration.
l The IPv6 address used for the subnet ip parameter must be the same as the local_address specified for
the tunnel command in the previous step.
l The default_route parameter must be set to the IPv6 address provided by the tunnel broker as the default
tunnel route.
l The VLAN parameters untagged_ports and tagged_ports are not required when the tunnel flag is
specified on the vlan command line. If they are specified, they will be ignored. [The front panel ports on
which the tunnel is accessible are the ports defined for the VLAN that we set up in Step 1.]
You should now be able to assign IPv6 addresses from the tunnel’s IPv6 address block as cluster IP addresses on
Equalizer, and clients from the IPv6 Internet should be able to connect to them using the cluster’s IPv6 address.
To configure DNS for IPv6, see the following section.
Configuring DNS for IPv6 Tunnels
The Domain Name System (DNS) is used by both IPv4 and IPv6 systems to provide name to address mapping,
and address to name mapping. Systems that support both IPv4 and IPv6 will require DNS entries that describe the
mappings for each protocol.
A new DNS record type, AAAA (sometime referred to as "quad-A"), has been defined for IPv6 name to address
mappings (see RFC 3596). AAAA records contain a single IPv6 address mapped to a fully qualified domain name
(FQDN). The assigned value for this record type is 28 (decimal). You will need to create AAAA records on your
authoritative DNS server in order to access IPv6-enabled systems using their FQDN.
In addition, a special domain rooted at “.IP6.ARPA” is defined in RFC 3596 to provide a way of mapping an IPv6
address to a host name. This is commonly called "DNS reverse lookup", and is specified in your authoritative DNS
server’s reverse lookup files using PTR (or "pointer") records.
Please refer to the DNS documentation appropriate for your network configuration for more information on adding
IPv6 AAAA and PTR records.
