ipv6 dns leak

[daf 1]

On my system, the ipv6 address shown on ipv6-test.com is the same whether connected to an AirVPN server or not. Must ipv6 be completely disabled to prevent dns leaks?

Hello!

 

Yes (on Windows - on other systems please check your nameservers). In general if your ISP has IPv6 DNS servers and you have set them in your Windows, the system can send out IPv6 DNS queries out of the tunnel.

 

Kind regards

Hello,

 

It would be great to clear out for everyone this IPV6 issue in the FAQ maybe ? As if ipv6 must be disabled to prevent security issues this must be known...every system has ipv6 enabled from now on.
