As I am quite an ipv6 advocate, though at a really small and amateur level, I wanted to use Miyuru’s https://gitlab.com/miyurusankalpa/IPv6-dns-server in my own network.

Trouble is… I already have four DNS servers (two resolvers/validators, one autority, one cache) in my network, and they reside on the same physical machines (there is dnsmasq on the router distributing local names and there is NSD running on my main server, acting as autority for my domain, finally both machines have unbound running - from OpenBSD base).

I tried to launch the node ipv6 server as another dns server on a RPi, but it gets messy.

So I thought I would try to write a python script to load into Unbound.

Then I began to understand that I tried to swallow bigger than myself - being an amateur, that’s not a surprise, I have learn 90% of everything of all I know about computing and networking by myself.

If anyone wants to collaborate, suggest work paths or ideas, don’t hesitate to drop a comment or look into the git. Up to the challenge ?

BTW, according to ChatGPT, those networks have ipv6 connectivity and some of them are not in Miyuru’s lists.

Cloudflare
Akamai Technologies
Fastly
Amazon CloudFront
Limelight Networks
Verizon Digital Media Services (Edgecast)
StackPath (formerly MaxCDN)
KeyCDN
CDNetworks
Incapsula (Imperva)

I thought it would be cool to check on them too.

Thank you for reading my small self advertising. (Not sure about which Flair to use)
