“copy paste the output” is your solution? You think this somehow scales to manage entire networks like this with dynamic addressing? Do you perceive a network admin as a monkey who copy-pastes things all day?

This is exactly the absurd non-solution I am referring to, and it seems like if someone dismisses this with “one line instruction is all u need lol” they cannot even comprehend the scale at which real life operates.

Copying and pasting was just my attempt to demonstrate how simple a v6 rDNS record is to add. If you were interested in hiring me to write a solution for your ISP, that's fine, but you can't seriously expect random people to do it for you for free in a HN comment.

It should be pretty obvious that a script can generate these records from the forward records or from any other source of IPs/hosts, with no per-address effort needed on the part of the network admins.
