Experimenting with IPv6 DNS requires a small change to your computer or router settings to point to the IPv6-enabled OpenDNS IPv6 addresses.

1. Verify you have IPv6 Enabled

You can visit Kame to verify you have a working IPv6 IP address. If you see a swimming turtle, you are ready to continue configuring. If you don't, perhaps you need an IPv6 Tunnel setup, like the free one you can get at http://tunnelbroker.net/.

2. Enter the OpenDNS IPv6 Sandbox IPs:
2620:0:ccc::2
2620:0:ccd::2

3. Test your settings:

Note: IPv6 support in the OpenDNS Sandbox is limited to standard recursive DNS initially. Additional functionality, like Web content filtering, malware and botnet protection, phishing protection, and more will be available on different IPs when IPv6 support is added to the OpenDNS Dashboard in the coming months. We have no plan to ever shut down or change the default features for the sandbox IPs.
