Hi,

I have no idea what a "v6 DNS ACL" should be, except maybe an ACL that
protects which IPv6 clients are allowed to talk to a DNS server.

Whitelisting, on the other hand, is the term that Google introduced for
this kind of "thing" and people seem to clearly understand what this 
is about.  "You are on my white list of people that I like talking to!".
