Configuring IPv6 in the RAX200?
o I enabled IPv6 in my RAX200. Everything looks ok and is working fine, however I'm not sure how to manually enter the DNS servers I prefer:
Cloudflare: 1.1.1.1
Google: 8.8.8.8
Cloudflare lists this as their IPv6 DNS: 2606:4700:4700::1111
Google lists this as their IPv6 DNS: 2001:4860:4860::8888
This is the RAX200's IPv6 page. How do I enter the above DNS addresses in there? There are eight blanks for primary and secondary, yet the addresses Cloudflare and Google provide are four sets of four characters.
No like this:
Cloudflare
2606:4700:4700:0000:0000:0000:0000:1111
2606:4700:4700:0000:0000:0000:0000:1001 (Cloudflare Alternate)
Google2001:4860:4860:0000:0000:0000:0000:8888
2001:4860:4860:0000:0000:0000:0000:8844 (Google Alternate)

Just place zeroes between the second to last and last set of 4 characters the double :: means you should place 0000s in between.
So these:
Cloudflare lists this as their IPv6 DNS: 2606:4700:4700::1111
Google lists this as their IPv6 DNS: 2001:4860:4860::8888
should be entered like this?
Cloudflare: 2606:4700:4700:0000:1111
Google: 2001:4860:4860:0000:8888
That would still leave three blanks on each.
