AAAA Record Checker
Check AAAA records to confirm IPv6 addresses published for your domain and diagnose dual-stack issues.
How to use this tool
- Enter the hostname you want to validate and query AAAA records.
- Review returned IPv6 addresses plus TTL and resolver status details.
- Export JSON/CSV output for rollout checks and incident evidence.
IPv6 readiness checks
- Confirm dual-stack hostnames publish expected AAAA records.
- Compare results across environments before enabling IPv6 globally.
- Validate authority responses when records are missing or delegated.
Troubleshooting guidance
- Ensure services are listening on IPv6 before publishing AAAA records.
- Test resolved addresses with IPv6-specific network probes.
- Use TTL values to plan cache-flush and propagation verification.
FAQ
- What if only some regions return AAAA records?
- This can indicate geo-based DNS behavior. Verify each edge or region has IPv6 fully enabled before announcing broad support.
- Do clients automatically prefer IPv6?
- Most modern systems use Happy Eyeballs and will try IPv6 when reachable, so firewall and routing policy must be ready.
