IPv6 DNS
In FortiOS Version 4.0 MR1, you can configure DNS server addresses for IPv6 traffic. This
is available only in the CLI. There are new keywords for the config system dns
command, as follows:
Syntax
config system dns
set ip6-primary <ipv6_addr>
set ip6-secondary <ipv6_addr>
end
These new keywords also apply to the new config system vdom-dns command. See
“Per-VDOM DNS configuration” on page 74.
Example
config system dns
set ip6-primary 2002::1
set ip6-secondary 2002::2
end
IPv6 transparent mode
FortiOS 4.0 MR1 supports IPv6 traffic in Transparent mode.
IPv6 administrative access
You can configure remote administration over an IPv6 network. This is possible because
of changes to network interface and administrator configurations. To see IPv6 options in
the we-based manager, you must enable IPv6 Support on GUI in System > Admin >
Settings.
Variable Description Default
ip6-primary
<ipv6_addr>
Enter the IP address of the primary DNS server for
IPv6 traffic.
No default.
ip6-secondary
<ipv6_addr>
Enter the IP address of the secondary DNS server
for IPv6 traffic.
No default.
