The entry you need to add must only have the parts of the IPv6 PTR address not in the main record, so see the other examples in these files.		* IPv6: Log into a cPanel server (e.g. cpanel01002) and click Edit DNS zone.

	# Create a new NS record (or multiple) pointing to their DNS servers		# Create a new NS record (or multiple) pointing to their DNS servers

	Regarding IPv6, I'~~m trying to figure that out~~.		Regarding IPv6, the process is similar, but will work on a range of addresses as we allocate a /64 typically:

			# Remove all existing PTR records for IP addresses in the subnet
			# Create a new NS record for just the subnet, pointing to their DNS servers

			For instance, we have the zone ''0.a.d.9.3.0.a.2.ip6.arpa'' which is for anything in 2a03:9da0::/32. If a user wanted 2a03:9da0:000f:0001::/64 delegated, we would create a new record as follows

			1.0.0.0.f.0.0.0 14000 IN NS ns1.customer.com
			1.0.0.0.f.0.0.0 14000 IN NS ns2.customer.com
