Note: Dec 2016 - Had to move the site to a provide who doesn’t provide IPv6. Hopefully the provider will use IPv6 soon.

I have to admit, I’m not a DNS expert. I wish I was. I plan to setup an IPv6 network in my house soon. So, to get my feet wet, I setup my blog site with an IPv6 address.

  • First, I got an IPv6 address for my blog server. This was not hard. The Host Provider had easy to follow instructions.

  • Next, I went to my DNS provider’s website, and added a AAAA record to my DNS zone file. Below is a snapshot of that information. IPv4 and IPv6 record for linuxsimba.com

I discuss how I verified IPv6 verification in a later post
