thanks for your comment.
But if only some IP have e reverse..what about the other server who have received an IP in the range? Ip that can be changed every x hours.
IF no reverse, it can be blacklisted for some reasons or having some problems with services asking a reverse dns resolution.

> For our IPv6 address space 2001:4870:20ca::/48, I created a reverse lookup zone a.c.0.2.0.7.8.4.1.0.0.2.ip6.arpa and arranged for delegation from our ISP. I included PTR records only for those hosts accessible from the outside. Internal DNS is Windows Active Directory integrated. Here's a sample from the zone file, which contains about 25 PTR records in all:
