Reverse records (PTR) for IPv6

Hi folks, i got an F5 DNS acting as a nameserver, ready for ipv6, but now we got the create the reverse records (PTR) for the clients subnet, and those subnet are millions of millions of addreses, so millions of records, i dont know how we can solve this, with an irule i guess or maybe you guys know another method working somewhere.

    Create them from where? It'd probably hep to have a bit more context so we can work out why you have forwards but no reverse domains...

     

    Write a script perhaps? perl, bash, ksh, or for the people who like whitespace as syntax python. If you can get the forward data it's a simple matter to write out the reverse records for it.
