1) The source host uses its MTU to send packets to the destination host.
2) If the MTU supported by a forwarding interface is smaller than the packet size, the forwarding
device will discard the packet and return an ICMPv6 error packet containing the interface MTU to
the source host.
3) After receiving the ICMPv6 error packet, the source host uses the returned MTU to send packets to
the destination.
4) Step 2 to step 3 are repeated until the destination host receives the packet. In this way, the
minimum MTU of all links in the path from the source host to the destination host is determined.
Introduction to IPv6 DNS
IPv6 Domain Name System (DNS) is responsible for translating domain names into IPv6 addresses,
instead of IPv4 addresses.
Like IPv4 DNS, IPv6 DNS also involves static domain name resolution and dynamic domain name
resolution. The function and implementation of these two types of domain name resolution are the same
as those of IPv4 DNS. For details, refer to
DNS Configuration
in the
IP Services Volume
.
Usually, the DNS server connecting IPv4 and IPv6 networks not only contains A records (IPv4
addresses), but also AAAA records (IPv6 addresses). The DNS server can convert domain names into
IPv4 addresses or IPv6 addresses. In this way, the DNS server implements the functions of both IPv6
DNS and IPv4 DNS.
