Dynamic domain name resolution configuration

874BNetwork requirements
As shown in 2911HFigure 383, the firewall wants to access the host by using an easy-to-remember domain
name rather than an IPv6 address. The IPv6 address of the DNS server is 2::2/64 and the server has a
com domain, which stores the mapping between domain name host and IPv6 address 1::1/64.
Configure dynamic domain name resolution and the domain name suffix com on the firewall that serves
as a DNS client so that the firewall can use domain name host to access the host with the domain name
host.com and the IPv6 address 1::1/64.

875BConfiguration procedure
Before performing the following configuration, make sure the firewall and the host are accessible to each
other through available routes, and the IPv6 addresses of the interfaces are configured as shown
2912HFigure
383.
This configuration may vary with DNS servers. The following configuration is performed on a PC running
Windows Server 2003. Make sure the DNS server supports the IPv6 DNS function so that the server can
process IPv6 DNS packets, and the interfaces of the DNS server can forward IPv6 packets.
1. Configure the DNS server:
a. Select Start > Programs > Administrative Tools > DNS.
The DNS server configuration page appears, as shown in
2913HFigure 384.
b. Right-click Forward Lookup Zones, select New Zone, and then follow the wizard to create a
new zone named com.
