Abstract
The present invention provides a method and device for hierarchical configuration of domain name in IPv6 network. Said method comprises: a) negotiating a unique user network's name between a user and a network SP; b) a client terminal device at the user network side obtaining prefix of IPv6 network address and suffix of the user network's domain name by sessioning with a network access device, said suffix of the user network's domain name being consisting of the user network's name and suffix of the network SP's domain name; c) the network access device further informing the network SP's DNS server of establishing the resource record of said user network's domain name server; d) said client terminal device conducting the address configuration and providing domain name service for hosts at the user network side according to the obtained prefix of IPv6 network address and suffix of the user network's domain name.
