New - Custom Reverse DNS for Cloud IPs

Brightbox Cloud IPs now support using your own custom reverse DNS names.

Cloud IPs automatically have a preconfigured default reverse DNS entry, which looks like this:

$ host 109.107.38.125
125.38.107.109.in-addr.arpa domain name pointer cip-109-107-38-125.gb1.brightbox.com.

But you can now use your own domain name so that they look more like this:

$ host 109.107.38.125 
125.38.107.109.in-addr.arpa domain name pointer mailserver.example.com.

See the custom reverse DNS documentation for a step-by-step guide to using this new feature.
