I have just been reading up on IPv6 (it's still all a bit new to me). If my host is using IPv6 are you able to provide a DNS for it?

Huh? I'm confused can anyone explain whats you are going on about!

Well its pretty simple actually I think it stems to the fact that with the current format that the IP system uses (IPv4) there are becoming less spare ip addresses for each new computer to hit the internet. IP addresses at the moment are in the format xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx eg: 144.189.32.144

Basically there are only about 4.3billion combinations, which is less than one per person.

The new system implements a hexidecimal format which is in the format -

2001:0db8:0000:0000:0000:0000:1428:57ab (eight groups of four hexadecimal digits). This new system gives each person well over a billion billion ip's each to use.

If that is all a bit too much, check google.

The new format looks pretty tricky remember thought so I suppose why that was why the origional question was asked!

IPv6 requires an different type of DNS record. We currently don't support this but we are hoping to make it available to you over the coming months.

Instead of an A records (which resolves IPv4 addresses), an AAAA record is used for resolving IPv6 addresses.
