IPv6 DNS Pi-hole

Expected Behaviour:

Hello everyone,

I just installed a PiHole DNS Server to my local Network. However I cant find the setting to set the DNS IPV6 Adress on my Router. I have installed some Pi Holes on diffrend Routers before, wehre I could specifically set a DNS IPV6 Adress, but I dont find it on this icotera Router. The router is a fibre optic Router.
There are Options for primary and secondary DNS Adresses but its only for IPV4.

Here is the manual for my router:https://zzoomm.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/01/1.17.3-User-Guide-1_0.pdf

I cant finde any settings to set a IPv6 DNS or disable IPv6 completly. I found the following setting on my router: "IPv6 Router Advertisement: when enabled, messages are sent by the router periodically and in response to Neighbor Solicitation packets"
Can IPv6 traffic be disabled by this option?
I also found a german manual: https://www.albis-elcon.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/04/Datenblatt-Ethernet-Router-i4850-dt.pdf
Where it says: Layer2; Transparent IPv6 forwarding
and on Layer3; IPv6 - Prefix Delegation RFC3769 - DHCP Client
Is this relevant for my problem?

I found a simiular topic on this forum: https://discourse.pi-hole.net/t/ipv6-dns-bypassing-pi-hole/50957
Among other things, Bucking_Horn says the following there: "If your IPv6-capable devices only have a link-local IPv6 address (range fe80::/8), this would indicate that your ISP has not assigned you a public IPv6 prefix and therefore IPv6 is not activated on your connection."

Can I check whether my ISP has assigned me a public IPV6, and if so, how?

I hope my problem is clear and understandable. I would be happy to receive help.

Cheers

You could ask your ISP's helpdesk.
