Hi all! ๐Ÿ‘‹

 

We've been a bit quiet here, but only because we have been full force and in the deep end of building our new network and improving our services. We'll have more to announce soon in a bigger post (hint: may include our most requested feature...), but for now we wanted to make an announcement on another highly requested feature!

 

Self-service rDNS is here! ๐ŸŽ‰

 

This has been one of our highly requested features, and we're glad to deliver - and is available in your portal now.

 

This is however just v1, and there are some limitations and functionality coming soon - we just couldn't wait to get this out to you all!

 

     

  1. Currently only IPv4 is supported, IPv6 is coming soon.
  2. Currently you can only modify rDNS for your primary static IP. If you have purchased an IP subnet in addition to your static IP, you can't modify rDNS for the subnet just yet.
  3. DNS delegation isn't supported yet.

 

(it's also likely fair to say the above features will roll out in roughly this order too)

 

Another note is if you've requested rDNS manually from us in the past, it won't be showing in the portal - but feel free to add it, it'll just overwrite any existing record for your IP. ๐Ÿ˜Š

 

Some screengrabs to tantalize the tastebuds:

 

Accessing rDNS through your portal menu:

 

 

Adding an rDNS record:

 

 

Viewing rDNS records on your account:

 

 

A quic(k) note of thanks to our beta testers for testing this functionality out too - they've been hard at work testing not only this, but a bunch of new features being announced soon!

 

Thanks as always for your support! ๐Ÿงก Watch this space for more announcements soon.

 

P.S. Like what we're doing? We'd love your vote for this year's Broadband People's Choice Award! https://www.judgify.me/public-voting/2023

As per the most requested feature a few of us already have it in beta too (just teasing you all) and performance has been awesome.

 

But thanks @quic! So glad to see self service rDNS and also in-case anyone has missed it they do have rDNS on IPv6 as from a few days ago (just not able to be customized I don't think yet).

Quic(k) update!

 

Points 1 and 2 above are now completed, and those with IPv4 and/or IPv6 subnets can now also self-manage rDNS. ๐Ÿ˜

 

 

Enjoy!

@quic I've never done rDNS for IPv6, what do we put in the IP Address box?

Good question - we haven't got the documentation done yet! ๐Ÿ˜‚

 

You can enter any v6 address within your subnet in condensed format (e.g. 2407:8b00:abcd:abcd:12::) etc. ๐Ÿ˜Š

Hi there

 

I've been having a go at getting my home email server going with my static IP. In the PTR Record RDATA entry area, do I set it as 'mail.example.com' or just 'example.com'?

 

Thanks :-)

Hey guys,

 

I am trying to setup an rDNS record for our static IP as Microsoft (Outlook) is having a whine that the address range isn't in their junk mail reporting system and rejecting emails. To get on this list, MS do an rDNS query on the IP address to determine 'authorized' mail addresses to send to, so I need to setup rDNS so my domain's abuse email is included in their auth check (at the moment, quic's ones are included).

 

However, whenever I try to add an rDNS record on the dashboard "Manage rDNS" page, the Confirm button responds by spinning for half a second then reverts with no error. No record is added and the "Add PTR Record" box remains on screen. Clicking confirm multiple times does the same thing.

 

Has anyone had success adding their rDNS on this page?

Unfortunately I get the same result trying to add a record. Will let you know if I manage to add one though...

It’s working with me at-least now (iOS, Safari). Perhaps try again? Also remember this is the first week with their major network migration so there is likely a chance non essential stuff like this may break while prep work / work is done.
