Set CLAT Get Prefix Information from DNS

ComputerNeeds changes for IntuneNew in 26H2 · 1.0IPxlatCfg_03_GetPrefixInfoFromDNS

Supported on SUPPORTED_Windows11 (defined in the Windows templates)

What it does

This policy setting allows DNS to be used as a prefix information source for non-cellular CLAT. If you enable this policy setting, CLAT will be allowed to discover NAT64 prefixes via DNS. If both NAT64 prefix discovery methods are enabled, the order of precedence is (RA, DNS). If you disable this policy setting, CLAT will not be allowed to discover NAT64 prefixes via DNS. If you do not configure this policy setting, the local host setting is used. A reboot is required for this policy setting to take effect.

  • The OMA-URI is an inferred ADMX-backed Policy CSP candidate derived from the source ADMX file name and policy name.
  • Some Microsoft policies use built-in Policy CSP pages whose area names don't match the ADMX file name, so verify the candidate against Microsoft Learn before deployment.
