Allow making IPv6 dynamic DNS point to LAN client

Routers
1

Hello,

glddns.com is fine for IPv4 but for IPv6 it only allows using its own, making it useless when needing to point to a LAN client (e.g. a server).

Therefore, it would be nice to add an option allowing to make the dynamic DNS to use said selected device’s IPv6 instead of its own.

Thanks

I believe gl ddns is still not compatible with IPv6.

Anyone can confirm that?

As I said, it actually is, but it creates an AAAA record pointing to the router itself, while I need to point to a server on my network.

Thanks

That’s how it should be. DDNS is for the router only.

I got it ! That’s easy you can point it to any IP of your choice. The ddns update command can be found at:

/etc/ddns/services_ipv6

To construct the values needed for the update command, look at this script:

/usr/lib/ddns/dynamic_dns_updater.sh
