a simple game... remove IPv4 addresses for DNS Nameservers.
in the bad old days:
option domain-name-server 192.168.10.53;
worked a treat... so today we try...
option domain-name-server 3ffe::53;
and the code falls over. so we try w/ RFC 3646 options.. No Joy:

/etc/dhcpd.conf line 10: unknown option dhcp.dns-recursive-name-server
option dns-recursive-name-server 3ffe:

looking at the helpful ManPage...
option domain-name-servers ip-address [, ip-address... ];
The domain-name-servers option specifies a list of Domain Name
System (STD 13, RFC 1035) name servers available to the client.
Servers should be listed in order of preference.
and
The ip-address data type can be entered either as an explicit IP
address (e.g., 239.254.197.10) or as a domain name (e.g., haa-
gen.isc.org). When entering a domain name, be sure that that domain
name resolves to a single IP address.
The ip6-address data specifies an IPv6 address, like ::1 or
3ffe:bbbb:aaaa:aaaa::1.
So... it appears one can not use IPv6 addresses for the Nameservers to be
distributed to the client pool. (we simply -MUST- try using that multicast
address sometime soon tho... could be loads of fun!!!)
Or
is there a clever work around for the ISC code? Do I need to dump it for
the compliant cisco code? Recommendations welcomed.
