Basic reverse dns configuration

this cannot be changed

New Around Here
Searched forum first before posting but I don't see many threads about configuring reverse DNS.
I'm using nvram set dhcp_staticlist / dhcp_hostnames to set my machines that that has worked well for years.

Now I'm looking at setting up ptr records. does anyone have a quick 5 second guide on what is required?
 
You could use dnsmasq.conf.add to create ptr-record entries.

Although I think that anything you've setup with dhcp_staticlist / dhcp_hostnames will automatically have a reverse DNS record.
