slaac + dns

Hi

so i'm trying to get ipv6 into the home network - the isp provides /64 + /48 - all good.

I had dhcp for ipv4, but my mikrotik doesn't do ipv6 dhcpv6 to allocate ip's - from my understand ??

what I have done is add dgw to all of my interfaces from my /48

I have added ipv6 static ip's to all of my dns servers - made sure they hand AAAA queries

that all seems to be going well so my phone can connect to wifi get ipv6 via slaac and gets its dns via ipv4 dhcp.

I believe what I want to do is set my ipv6 ND ?? to so do I tell it to advertise dns servers here and point to the ipv6 address for the DNS servers.

Does it matter - as I am not turning of ipv4 at home

or do i some how turn on dhcpv6 and issue dns and ntp and ??? from there

Hi

So I have a home network

I have a mikrotek connecting to my ISP - that provides a /48 via dhcpv6 fd as well a a local /64 address

lets say /48 is a:b:c::/48

a:b:c:12::1/64 is on the inside lan vlan

I have another mikrotek which connect to the inside lan of the first router gets a a:b:c:12::/64 address

I have 4 more vlans on the inside of the second router i have allocated a:b:c:192-195 to these vlans - they overlap with the 192.168.192-195 => 192.168.192/22 networks - but for ipv6 192-195 don't roll up into 1 /62 :( I was going to try the dhcp thing and allocate /62 to the router so it can use them. But .... I can't because I need to allocate 2 x /63 I think

so how would you do this in ipv6 world. because I am thinking ...

Allocate a static a:b:c:12::/64 address

static route a:b:c:192-195:: via that address and I am done - but its all static so ....

Second question I want to create 2 dmz machines - running ngnix - for ipv4 I run keep alive with a vrrp address that basically prioritised to the primary node and fails back to the second if the first is done . quick glance tells me keepalived does ipv6 - should I just keep doing that ?

i don't want a dns name to resolve to mulitple ipv6 and just have the apps fail if they can't connect. so is there a new way to do this in ipv6 ? these are debian 13 lxc's

last question - there is no easy way to do dynamic ipv6 addresses for devices and have them registered in dns. I was going to run dhcpv6 but the mikrotek doesn't accually do ip address allocation it looks like you are mean to use slaac and then use dhcpv6 for dns - is that right ? if I want any thing I really need to scrap the dhcpv6 records and inject records into dns
