Example for Configuring an IPv6 Recursive DNS Server
The following example configures a RDNNS server with an IPv6 address of 1000::1 and a lifetime of 1
second.
Dell(conf-if-te-0/1)#ipv6 nd dns-server ?
X:X:X:X::X Recursive DNS Server's (RDNSS) IPv6 address
Dell(conf-if-te-0/1)#ipv6 nd dns-server 1000::1 ?
<0-4294967295> Max lifetime (sec) which RDNSS address may be used for
name resolution
infinite Infinite lifetime (sec) which RDNSS address may be used
for name resolution
Dell(conf-if-te-0/1)#ipv6 nd dns-server 1000::1 1
Debugging IPv6 RDNSS Information Sent to the Host
To verify that the IPv6 RDNSS information sent to the host is configured correctly, use the debug ipv6
nd command in EXEC Privilege mode.
Example of Debugging IPv6 RDNSS Information Sent to the Host
The following example debugs IPv6 RDNSS information sent to the host.
Dell(conf-if-te-0/1)#do debug ipv6 nd tengigabitethernet 0/1
ICMPv6 Neighbor Discovery packet debugging is on for tengigabitethernet 0/1
Dell(conf-if-te-0/1)#00:13:02 : : cp-ICMPV6-ND: Sending RA on Te 0/1

dns-server=3000::0001, lifetime=1 sec
dns-server=2000::0001, lifetime=0 sec
The last 3 lines indicate that the IPv6 RDNSS information was configured correctly.
dns-server=1000::0001, lifetime=1 sec
dns-server=3000::0001, lifetime=1 sec
dns-server=2000::0001, lifetime=0 sec
If the DNS server information is not displayed, verify that the IPv6 recursive DNS server configuration was
configured on the correct interface.
Displaying IPv6 RDNSS Information
To display IPv6 interface information, including IPv6 RDNSS information, use the show ipv6
interface
command in EXEC or EXEC Privilege mode.
Examples of Displaying IPv6 RDNSS Information
The following example displays IPv6 RDNSS information. The output in the last 3 lines indicates that the
IPv6 RDNSS was correctly configured on interface te 0/1.
