1. Abstract
This document defines the changes that need to be made to the Domain
Name System to support hosts running IP version 6 (IPv6). The
changes include a new resource record type to store an IPv6 address
in a manner which expedites network renumbering, and updated
definitions of existing query types that return Internet addresses
as part of additional section processing.
This document defines changes to the Domain Name System to support
renumberable and aggregatable IPv6 addressing. The changes include
a new resource record type to store an IPv6 address in a manner
which expedites network renumbering, and updated definitions of
existing query types that return Internet addresses as part of
additional section processing.
For lookups keyed on IPv6 addresses (often called reverse lookups),
this document defines a new domain to hold the top-level delegation
information and a zone structure which allows a zone to be used
without modification for parallel copies of an address space (as for
a multihomed provider or site) and across network renumbering
events.

Current support for the storage of Internet addresses in the Domain
Name System (DNS) [DNSCF, DNSIS] cannot easily be extended to
support IPv6 addresses [AARCH] since applications assume that
address queries return 32-bit IPv4 addresses only. In addition,

6.1.2. Glue
When, as is common, some or all DNS servers for X.EXAMPLE are within
the X.EXAMPLE zone itself, the top-level zone EXAMPLE must carry
enough "glue" information to enable DNS clients to reach those
nameservers. This is true in IPv6 just as in IPv4. However, the A6
record affords the DNS administrator some choices. The glue could
be any of
o a minimal set of A6 records duplicated from the X.EXAMPLE zone,
o a (possibly smaller) set of records which collapse the structure
of that minimal set,
o or a set of A6 records with prefix length zero, giving the
entire global addresses of the servers.
The trade-off is ease of maintenance against robustness. The best
and worst of both may be had together by implementing either the
first or second option together with the third. To illustrate the
glue options, suppose that X.EXAMPLE is served by two nameservers
NS1.X.EXAMPLE and NS2.X.EXAMPLE, having interface identifiers
::1:11:111:1111 and ::2:22:222:2222 on subnets 1 and 2 respectively.
Then the top-level zone EXAMPLE would include one (or more) of the
following sets of A6 records as glue.

The first and second glue options are robust against renumbering of
X.EXAMPLE's prefixes by providers A.NET and B.NET, but will fail if
those providers' own DNS is unreachable. The glue records of the
third option are robust against DNS failures elsewhere than the
zones EXAMPLE and X.EXAMPLE themselves, but must be updated when X's
address space is renumbered.
If the EXAMPLE zone includes redundant glue, for instance the union
of the A6 records of the first and third options, then under normal
circumstances duplicate IPv6 addresses will be derived by DNS
clients. But if provider DNS fails, addresses will still be
obtained from the zero-prefix-length records, while if the EXAMPLE
zone lags behind a renumbering of X.EXAMPLE, half of the addresses
obtained by DNS clients will still be up-to-date.
The zero-prefix-length glue records can of course be automatically
generated and/or checked in practice.
