Greetings!
Is anyone using the reverse zone for v6 address blocks successfully?
I've added an ip6.arpa zone to a v6 address block, but I am not
getting PTR records created.
I've had issues before (for in-addr.arpa IPv4) with creating the
(reverse) zone in the DNS Zones vs IP Block Zones. So, I tried
creating the zone both via the "DNS Zones" -> new and also under the
"IP Block" -> Zones -> Reverse Zones -> add, but still can't get v6
PTR records to be auto-created.
Thanks!

Hi Matt,
It definitely works because I've been using the feature for years. The
procedure you mention:
"IP Block" -> Zones -> Reverse Zones -> add
is the recommended one because Netdot will generate the right zone label
for you based on the block.
PTR records should be created/updated automatically each time you
add/update a AAAA record.

Hey Carlos,
A few questions for you, if you don't mind. :)
1. Is there a configuration option for auto creating PTR records? Or
if an Address Space (IP Block) has a Reverse DNS Zone then PTR records
get created automatically?
2. When you add a Reverse DNS Zone to an Address Space, does it
iterate through all the children and check for A/AAAA records and
create PTR records? Or does it just create PTR records for new A/AAAA
records within the Address Space?
2a. If the PTRs for A/AAAA get generated when a Reverse Zone is added
to an Address Space, where in the code do the PTRs get added?
3. Are the results of creating a new ip6.arpa zone via:
"DNS Zones" -> new
and then adding the new zone to the Address Space's Reverse DNS Zones
and
"Address Space" -> Zones -> Reverse DNS Zones -> add
the same? That is, is there any functional difference between the two?
4. Can you give an example of when to use the Template Zone when
creating a new zone?
Like I said, I've had some mixed results with the in-addr.arpa PTR
records for a v4 Address Space. I'd love to get the definitive word on
reverse zones so that I know how the systems is supposed to be
behaving.
FWIW, we're using Pg 9.4.9.
Thanks!

In lib/Netdot/Model/Zone.pm
sub insert
# Create PTR records if necessary
$newzone->is_dot_arpa() && $newzone->add_ptrs();
