Re: IPv6 resolvers

[Seth Mos <seth.mos () dds nl>]

Hi,

Just pointing out to other responding to this thread that I was referring to the *query* response times, I said nothing 
about ICMP which is perfectly fine.

So please stop responding with ping response times already :-)

No, pfSense does not set these per default, they are in wide use because these are part of the Google DNS whitelist for 
V6 records.

And a similar mistake I see others respond too as well, this is another domain with just a IPv4 record. That was not 
really what I was complaining about but I was not specific enough in my email

When requesting the DNS for the hostname with a Quad A the story is entirely different!

Try www.pfsense.com or www.didi.nl

Those will definitely hit the issue, otherwise one can always use Nanog.org like below.
