That to a large extent will depend on the settings on your DNS server. Each DNS record carries a time in seconds indicating for how long it may be cached.

If you do "host -v <your server name>" you should get this information displayed - it's the number just after your server name and before "IN".

E.g.

;; ANSWER SECTION:
able.baker.charlie.com  86400 IN A   1.2.3.4

(There's a lot more output than this, but this is early in the listing.)

86400 is a day's worth of seconds. Assuming you didn't change the timeout when you changed your IPv6 address, the current entry should still tell you what the timeout was.

Cheers,
John
