DDNS(Inadyn)

[bluepoint]

Since my ISP enabled IPV6 a week ago, DDNS updates every hour. Does it means my IPv6 address changes every hour cause my ipv4 IP doesn't? Is this how ddns should work?

AFAIK the DDNS service will check 30 minutes before and on the lease renewal, so as I have 1 hour leases from my ISP the system checks every 30 minutes. Again, AFAIK this happens for both IPv4 and IPv6, the difference being that if the system is IPv4 only, the check only reports to SYSLOG when there is a change whereas once you add IPv6 it always reports, change or no change.

Not a problem at all I'm just curious why DDNS suddenly checks every hour when IPv6 was added in the mix. When I had IPv4 only I have never seen DDNS update not unless it's the 21st day or when the router was rebooted. If this is how it will be with dual stack, then I'm happy it's working as it should be.
