Control Panel – PTR

September 4, 2021

Table of Contents


A PTR (Pointer) record also known as Reverse DNS (rDNS) is used to map an IP address to a domain name. This is the reverse of the usual DNS process, which maps domain names to IP addresses. PTR records are often used for email servers to ensure deliverability and reduce spam flags, as many mail servers check that the sending IP has a valid reverse DNS entry.

 

⚠️ Note: To add a PTR record, make sure your VPSie instance has a valid Fully Qualified Domain Name (FQDN) configured (e.g., server.example.com).


Steps to Add a PTR Record


You will see the following fields:

  • Select Server – Choose the appropriate VPS/server from the dropdown list.
  • Select IP – Pick the IP address associated with the selected server.

Click Add PTR records to apply the changes.
