  • Support for BIND DNS has been removed from Plesk for Windows due to security and maintenance risks.
    If a Plesk for Windows server is still using BIND, the upgrade to Plesk Obsidian 18.0.70 will be unavailable until the administrator switches the DNS server to Microsoft DNS.

Question Adding PTR record

ITTECH

Basic Pleskian
I have plesk 12.5.30 in windows server 2012,
I want to add a ptr record with a subnet mask /32 but plesk raise an error "Error: Incorrect DNS record values were specified."
So, Is there a way to add PTR record for single IP not for all Subnet.
 
Unfortunately, Plesk doesn't support this behavior, because creating reverse zones for subnets smaller than 255 addresses is a problematic issue that can be solved in compliance with RFC2317.
Network /32 is merely a special case.
That is, the zone /32 also requires the creation of reverse zone according to RFC2317, because when you create a zone in the usual case, you have to create the zone:

123.123.123.123.in-addr.arpa

but there is still need to add a PTR record descriptions to describe the reverse resolving:

123 IN PTR test.plesk.com.

But it must match the address 123.123.123.123.x (123.123.123.123.123) that is no longer IPv4 address.
