Aug 4 at 2:47 | comment | added | cth451 | @IanB No documentation as I am aware of, but this behavior does make some sense. If you don't have a IPv6 default route you most likely aren't connected to the wider IPv6 address space (by extension the Internet). No point to resolve an AAAA if it can't be routed. In my case, the VPN route a IPv6 internal network w/ a local AAAA resolver that only resolves some internal domains into ULAs. I think android can still attempt to resolve AAAA and fallback to A records if it turns out to match no routes IMHO, but google is google. | |
