ICANN Managed Root Server has requested the IPv6 renumbering from the current address 2001:500:3::42<\/strong> to 2001:500:9f::42<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Currently both IPv6 addresses, new and old, are configured on our production environment, and we have done extensive testing to ensure it is working properly.<\/p>\n

Current IP addresses for the l.root-servers.net service:
\n199.7.83.42
\n2001:500:3::42<\/p>\n

New IP addresses for the l.root-servers.net service:
\n199.7.83.42<\/strong>
\n 2001:500:9f::42<\/strong><\/p>\n

The change will be implemented on the root zone on March 23, 2016 2100UTC.<\/p>\n

We encourage to every DNS operator to update their DNS root “hints” file ASAP<\/b>.<\/p>\n

New hints files will be available once the <\/span>change has been formally executed on the usual places:<\/span><\/p>\n
