Configure dnsmasq as IPv6 nameserver but let router do routing (and maybe IP address assignment)
Suggestions welcome!
I'm moving DHCP and DNS services from a combined router (192.168.0.1) to a separate system (running on 192.168.0.2) with dnsmasq. I want the first system to be the default route and the second system to handle dns. How should I configure dnsmasq for this?
So far it works fine for IPv4 all system gets addresses and the correct name server. But when inspecting IPv6 settings in the terminal I see it is not using my internal DNS, but is using the IPv6 addresses of the ISP's DNS servers.
How should I configure so the IPv6 addresses are routed via the router and the name-server lookup is directed to my local name-server. The configuration options for v6 and examples I have found so far seem to only be suitable if both router and name-server are running the same machine.
Any suggestions pointing me in the right direction will be appreciated

Questions: (1) Which Linux distribution? (2) Does this issue apply here? (3) Please add to the post the contents of/etc/resolv.conf. (4) Aren't you missing "server=IPv6-address" indnsmasq.conf?

1. The distribution is some xenisal (16.04.5 ?) for arm based distribution. 2 maybe - not sure what I am looking for 4 Yes but I only want to change the name server in the IPv6 case

How could I write this system as server=ipv6addr ? It is not static as in IPv4 ? (Links or suggestions what keywords to google with would be appreciated)
