DNS servers

[WilDieteren 0]

L.S.,

 

Running IPLeak.net shows two DNS servers. The first shows 'Global Layer B.V. - AirVPN Server', which I assume is the AirVPN DNS server. The

second only shows an IP adress: 2a00:1678:2470:46::2 and that it is in the Netherlands, which is also where I am. I was wondering whether the second DNS server is also an AirVPN server.

That's AirVPN's IPv6 DNS running on their server.  It's nothing to be concerned about.  It doesn't mean you aren't properly blocking IPv6 on your end.

Khariz,

 

Thanks, had suspected as much, but wasn't sure.

Thanks from me, too.  When I go to https://ipleak.net/ I, too, get two DNS Servers:  an IPv4 on where the AirVPN server I'm using is, and an IPv6 one in Poland.  I assumed the IPV6 on was from the DNS Forwarding option in my pfSense box where the OpenVPN tunnel to AirVPN is set up.  But, I was scratching my head over why I was seeing the IPv6 one at all.  IPv6 is turned off on the computer and the pfSense box.
