implementers,

how are you guys dealing with IPv6 reverse lookups
particularly in government or commercial spaces.

At the moment we use bind to do the reverse lookups. Servers aren't my forte so I can't say exactly how it's all going, but it's similar to a reverse IPv4 record.

So you'll have something like 0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.1.2.a.e.1.0.0.2.ip6.arpa with your records inside.

Your DNS server needs to be speaking IPv6 and have a route to the internet so other IPv6 servers can query you of course.



This is just temporary and we are looking at getting a 3rd party tool...

Infoblox appliances for us. We have two of them running dual-stack.

Gah, that's crazy to type in,



That's just the file name :)

The records in the file will look something like
Code:
$ORIGIN 0.0.0.0.b.0.0.0.1.2.a.e.1.0.0.2.ip6.arpa.

1.0.0.0.1.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0         IN      PTR     example1.org.
1.0.0.0.2.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0         IN      PTR     subdomain.example1.org.
1.0.0.0.3.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0         IN      PTR     example2.org.

This is a sample direct from DNS and BIND on IPv6 pg.6...
Code:
As with IPv4 reverse-mapping zones, IPv6 reverse-mapping zones mostly contain PTR
records. And as with any zone, they must contain one SOA record and one or more NS
records. Here’s what the beginning of that zone looks like:

$TTL 1d
@ IN SOA terminator.movie.edu. hostmaster.movie.edu. (
2011030800 ; Serial number
1h ; Refresh (1 hour)
15m ; Retry (15 minutes)
30d ; Expire (30 days)
10m ) ; Negative-caching TTL (10 minutes)

IN NS terminator.movie.edu.
IN NS wormhole.movie.edu.

3.d.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0 PTR suckerpunch.v6.movie.edu.
4.d.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0 PTR super8.v6.movie.edu.
