Vista/Win7 doesn't use the advertised DNS-server
[se] Shadow Hawkins on Friday, 25 September 2009 21:43:48
I have a Linux box as server/router, on which I'm using radvd to send out RA's. My radvd.conf:
interface eth-loc { AdvSendAdvert on; prefix 2001:16d8:XXXX:XXXX::/64 { AdvOnLink on; AdvAutonomous on; AdvRouterAddr on; }; RDNSS 2001:16d8:XXXX:XXXX::1 { }; };
Radvd is working perfect, and Windows set an IP-adress and gateway. And by using the static IPv4 DNS, everything works fine. But looking at the "details" tab in connection information shows no IPv6 DNS. Have I done anything wrong, or doesn't Vista/Win7 support RFC 5006?

AFAIK, I think I remember reading somewhere that Vista doesn't support this. I've tried doing the same thing you have and I haven't been able to make it work either.

I don't think that Microsoft does RFC5006 yet. There is however an open source project to add this capability: http://sourceforge.net/projects/rdnssd-win32/ I have not tested it yet, but it sounds promising. Good Luck -_Dave

I'm game to try, but does anyone know if the Cisco ASA series will advertise a DNS server? I know you can do it with Router Advertisement in *NIX, but haven't seen a place for it in the Cisco setup.
