Adding a PTR Record

Scenarios

You can create PTR records to map private IP addresses to private domain names.

For details about other record set types, see Overview.

Constraints

  • You can create PTR records only in private zones.
  • PTR records take effect only in a private zone whose domain name suffix is in-addr.arpa.

    For details about how to add a PTR record for a public domain name, see Creating a PTR Record.

Procedure

  1. Log in to the management console.
  2. In the service list, choose Network > Domain Name Service.

    The DNS console is displayed.

  1. In the navigation pane, choose Private Zones.

    The Private Zones page is displayed.

  2. Click in the upper left corner and select the desired region and project.
  3. Click the zone name.
  4. Click Add Record Set.

    The Add Record Set dialog box is displayed.

  1. Set required parameters based on Table 1.

    Name of the PTR record

    10.1.168

    For example, if the IP address is 192.168.1.10, the domain name in the PTR record is 10.1.168.192.in-addr.arpa.

    • If the private zone name is 192.in-addr.arpa, enter 10.1.168 in the box.
