Description
Maintainer: @cahorn & @feckert
Environment: (ipq806x/generic, Netgear X4S R7800, 23.05.4)
Description:
dynv6 allows to update ipv6 prefix only of the zone, so the router can do records of other network devices by keeping the suffix part of the AAAA record.
Right now there is no way of doing it via ddns-scripts, or at least not in gui that I could find.
Example from https://dynv6.com/docs/apis
