What determines DNS will query IPV6 address?

When I do simple nslookup it does not generate any query for IPV6 (AAAA). But sometimes I see DNS query for both A and AAAA are generated. What decides this? The reason I do not want AAAA query is in most of the cases AAAA records are absent. Hence, if one DNS server fails, the clients keeps... (1 Reply)

Net::DNS::Resolver::Recurse(3)				User Contributed Perl Documentation			    Net::DNS::Resolver::Recurse(3)

NAME
Net::DNS::Resolver::Recurse - Perform recursive dns lookups SYNOPSIS
use Net::DNS::Resolver::Recurse; my $res = Net::DNS::Resolver::Recurse->new; DESCRIPTION
This module is a sub class of Net::DNS::Resolver. So the methods for Net::DNS::Resolver still work for this module as well. There are just a couple methods added: hints Initialize the hint servers. Recursive queries need a starting name server to work off of. This method takes a list of IP addresses to use as the starting servers. These name servers should be authoritative for the root (.) zone. $res->hints(@ips); If no hints are passed, the default nameserver is asked for the hints. Normally these IPs can be obtained from the following location: ftp://ftp.internic.net/domain/named.root recursion_callback This method is takes a code reference, which is then invoked each time a packet is received during the recursive lookup. For example to emulate dig's "+trace" function: $res->recursion_callback(sub { my $packet = shift; $_->print for $packet->additional; printf(";; Received %d bytes from %s ", $packet->answersize, $packet->answerfrom ); }); query_dorecursion This method is much like the normal query() method except it disables the recurse flag in the packet and explicitly performs the recursion. $packet = $res->query_dorecursion( "www.netscape.com.", "A"); IPv6 transport If the appropriate IPv6 libraries are installed the recursive resolver will randomly choose between IPv6 and IPv4 addresses of the nameservers it encounters during recursion. If you want to force IPv4 transport use the force_v4() method. Also see the IPv6 transport notes in the Net::DNS::Resolver documentation. AUTHOR
