How to use the IPv6 Compatibility Checker

Check whether a website supports IPv6 for its web, mail and DNS servers.

  1. 1 Enter the domain name.
  2. 2 Click Check IPv6.
  3. 3 See which services have IPv6 addresses and which are IPv4 only.

Example and practical tips

google.com scores 100% because its website, nameservers and mail servers all have AAAA records. A site with only IPv4 web servers cannot be reached by IPv6-only networks without translation.

Frequently asked questions

What is an AAAA record?

The DNS record that holds an IPv6 address, just as an A record holds an IPv4 address.

Does this test my own connection?

No. It checks the domain’s DNS records. Your own connection’s IPv6 support is shown by your IP address tools.
