Setting the IPv6 Primary DNS Server
After selecting the static IP configuration mode, you can use this
command syntax to specify the primary DNS server. It is required to
enable overriding the auto-assigned DNS server before you can specify
the DNS servers manually. See Overriding the IPv6 DHCP-Assigned
DNS Server (on page 250).
config:#
network ipv6 primaryDNSServer <ip address>
Variables:
<ip address> is the IP address of the primary DNS server. This value
uses the IPv6 address format.
Example
The following command determines that the primary DNS server is
2103:288:8201:1::14.
config:#
network ipv6 primaryDNSServer 2103:288:8201:1::14
Setting the IPv6 Secondary DNS Server
After selecting the static IP configuration mode, you can use this
command syntax to specify the secondary DNS server. It is required to
enable overriding the auto-assigned DNS server before you can specify
the DNS servers manually. See Overriding the IPv6 DHCP-Assigned
DNS Server (on page 250).
config:#
network ipv6 secondaryDNSServer <ip address>
Variables:
<ip address> is the IP address of the secondary DNS server. This
value uses the IPv6 address format.
Note: The EMX supports a maximum of 3 DNS servers. If two IPv4 DNS
servers and two IPv6 DNS servers are available, the EMX only uses the
primary IPv4 and IPv6 DNS servers.
Example
The following command determines that the secondary DNS server is
2103:288:8201:1::700.
config:#
network ipv6 secondaryDNSServer 2103:288:8201:1::700
