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     Cloud...

    No like this:

     

    Cloudflare

    2606:4700:4700:0000:0000:0000:0000:1111 

    2606:4700:4700:0000:0000:0000:0000:1001 (Cloudflare Alternate)


    Google

    2001:4860:4860:0000:0000:0000:0000:8888

    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.
