Frequently asked questions
AI-generated answers based on this skill's SKILL.md and metadata
How do I fix pihole ipv6 issues?
Pihole Dns Troubleshoot Ipv6 guides you through systematic resolution of IPv6 DNS problems. Start by verifying Pi-hole's filter-AAAA configuration is properly enabled, then test IPv6 blocking functionality. Clear your client DNS caches and confirm local network access works without authentication prompts. This ensures clients connect directly instead of routing through Cloudflare Tunnel with OAuth.
What causes pihole ipv6 dns not working?
Pihole Dns Troubleshoot Ipv6 identifies several root causes: misconfigured filter-AAAA settings, IPv6 blocking failures, stale DNS caches on clients, and authentication barriers preventing direct local access. The skill validates each component systematically to pinpoint whether the issue lies in Pi-hole configuration, client-side caching, or network connectivity.
How to troubleshoot pihole ipv6 dns query failures?
Pihole Dns Troubleshoot Ipv6 provides debug procedures for query failures by testing IPv6 blocking, verifying filter-AAAA configuration, and clearing client DNS caches. It confirms whether local access functions without authentication prompts, helping isolate whether failures stem from Pi-hole settings, client configuration, or tunnel-related authentication issues.
Can Pihole Dns Troubleshoot Ipv6 help configure IPv6 settings?
Yes. Pihole Dns Troubleshoot Ipv6 validates IPv6 DNS configuration by checking filter-AAAA setup, testing IPv6 blocking functionality, and ensuring clients achieve direct local access. It confirms settings work correctly so clients connect without OAuth authentication barriers or Cloudflare Tunnel routing.
Why does pihole ipv6 dns resolution fail after configuration?
Pihole Dns Troubleshoot Ipv6 diagnoses post-configuration failures by verifying filter-AAAA remains enabled, confirming IPv6 blocking works, and clearing accumulated DNS caches on clients. It also checks whether authentication prompts or tunnel routing are preventing direct local network access, which can mask underlying IPv6 resolution problems.
