Reverse DNS Setup
👋 Hey just noticed CF DNS actually supports reverse zones: https://developers.cloudflare.com/dns/additional-options/reverse-zones/
I set it up, and trying to create the domain object @ RIPE but failing with this confusing error:
Out-of-bailiwick name server listed at parent with glue record has a mismatch between the glue at the parent (jason.ns.cloudflare.com./127.0.0.1; jason.ns.cloudflare.com./::1) and any equivalent address record found in authoritative zone (jason.ns.cloudflare.com./108.162.193.179; jason.ns.cloudflare.com./172.64.33.179; jason.ns.cloudflare.com./173.245.59.179; jason.ns.cloudflare.com./2606:4700:58::adf5:3bb3; jason.ns.cloudflare.com./2803:f800:50::6ca2:c1b3; jason.ns.cloudflare.com./2a06:98c1:50::ac40:21b3). (for both jason & nena)
This is pretty confusing. Not sure I'm reading it right, but if I understand this correctly looking up AAAA jason.ns.cloudflare.com via jason.ns.cloudflare.com will yield ::1 instead of the authorative/upstream 2606:4700:58::adf5:3bb3 (and other options)?
Not sure if this is a configuration issue on my side or what's going on. Never dealt with rDNS 😅Reverse zones and PTR records · Cloudflare DNS docs
If you control your own IP prefix(es), you can set up reverse zones with PTR records to allow reverse DNS lookups.
