Title: DHCPv6 - DNS server alias
Post by: raneyda on April 27, 2023, 03:54:08 PM
I am trying to make a bullet proof IPv6 config.  By bullet proof I mean when I lose power for an extended period of time I will receive a new v6 prefix delegation. 

In the past I haven't used the alias with ::<v6 address> but now that I use that I can reliably automatically re-address the network including the v6 address range and the static hosts.  I have standalone pi-holes for DNS.  Those are my static v6 addresses.  What I haven't been able to do is use an alias for the prefix delegation and combine it with the static addresses in the DHCPv6 config.

If I could do that then v6 would appear as stable as v4 after an extended power outage.

Am I missing something that would allow me to do that?
