Since there's a thread here, I'll mention rDNS for residential users. I'm not sure there's consensus about whether forward and reverse ought to match (how strong a "should" is that?). I know you can't populate every potential record in a reverse zone, as in IPv4. You can generate records on the fly, or just not provide PTRs. I've described options in draft-howard-isp-ip6rdns-04 but I'm not sure enough people care whether it's published as an RFC. Discuss on IETF's dnsop list. https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/dnsop Lee

I battled for a few hours getting IPv6 rDNS to work. The following tool proved to be quite helpful: http://www.fpsn.net/?pg=tools&tool=ipv6-inaddr
Just in case anyone else would run into similar problems. It's not as straightforward as IPv4 rDNS.
