ipv6 nat inspect dns

Use this command to enable IPv6 NAT inspection and fixup of DNS packets forwarded by the NAT process.

ipv6 nat inspect dns
no ipv6 nat inspect dns

Parameters

None.

IPv6 NAT inspection and fixup of DNS packets is disabled by default.

Mode

Configuration command, Global configuration.

Usage

When NAT inspection is enabled, NAT inspects DNS packets that are being forwarded by the NAT process. NAT DNS packet inspection and fixup consists of parsing DNS request or response packets, identifying IP addresses contained within that may need to be NATed, and fixing up the DNS packet with the appropriate NAT translations.

NAT inspection of DNS packets is disabled by default.

The "no" form for this command disables NAT inspection of DNS packets.

Example

This example enables logging to log each occurrence of an IPv6 NAT binding creation or deletion:
