Summary

In this chapter, we took the bare-minimum look at things to keep in mind regarding IPv6 and DNS. The reader should now be aware that issues arising from the application environment and the network architecture (transport) as they interact with the naming infrastructure (DNS) affect overall performance.

Further reading on this topic would do well to include DNS and BIND on IPv6 (Cricket Liu, O'Reilly).
