For v6 we've got 2001:8b0:856:1::/64, we also get 2001:8b0:1111:1111::617a on the ppp link to boole.

== DNS ==
boole runs bind as a nameserver and unbound as a caching resolver, they run on different ip's, it has to be done this way to make DNSSEC work.
The dhcp server pokes hostnames that the dhcp clients send it into dns under '''dhcp.lan.london.hackspace.org.uk'''. The default search path is '''lan.london.hackspace.org.uk''', so if you want to lookup a hostname for a machine that is a dhcp client, e.g. '''fish''' then you'd lookup '''fish.dhcp''', this avoids problems with dhcp clients asking to be '''wpad''' etc...
machines with static ip's are just under '''lan.london.hackspace.org.uk''', so you can go straight to '''babbage''', '''tesla''', etc...
to flush the unbound cache run (as root, on boole):
unbound-control flush_zone dhcp.lan.london.hackspace.org.uk
unbound-control flush_zone rev.lan.london.hackspace.org.uk
unbound-control flush_zone lan.london.hackspace.org.uk
