It depends on the LIR – some let you, some don’t.

Have you asked them to setup PTR records?
I did so for IPv4. They're unable to delegate but can set PTRs. For IPv6, they don't have delegation for their own range, so cannot possibly resolve mine.
We usually do it for our clients, so I’ve no idea how others handle it
Why can't users of a given range set up their own delegation? I know it should be hierarchical, but in case RIPE did not delegate anything (found SOA 0.a.2.ip6.arpa. dns.ripe.net) couldn't they delegate directly after proof of "ownership"? Best Ale

Hi all,
what's the policy for reverse delegation? My provider assigned me a 2a02:29e1:500:6c00::/56. Great. However they didn't delegate reverse DNS. Indeed, their own 2a02:29e1::/32 has no delegations:
; <<>> DiG 9.18.24-1-Debian <<>> 1.e.9.2.2.0.a.2.ip6.arpa ns ;; global options: +cmd ;; Got answer: ;; ->>HEADER<<- opcode: QUERY, status: NXDOMAIN, id: 19800 ;; flags: qr rd ra ad; QUERY: 1, ANSWER: 0, AUTHORITY: 1, ADDITIONAL: 1
;; OPT PSEUDOSECTION: ; EDNS: version: 0, flags:; udp: 1232 ; COOKIE: cad8ae482b0e559c01000000660fe49763aa815e05fda159 (good) ;; QUESTION SECTION: ;1.e.9.2.2.0.a.2.ip6.arpa. IN NS

Now there are mail servers which reject mail if they don't find a matching PTR:
<<< 554 resimta-c2p-559421.sys.comcast.net resimta-c2p-559421.sys.comcast.net 2a02:29e1:500:6c00::4 Comcast requires that all mail servers must have a PTR record with a valid Reverse DNS entry. Currently your mail server does not fill that requirement. For more information, refer to: https://postmaster.comcast.net/smtp-error-codes.php#554
Why isn't it possible to gain a delegation by proving number assignment?
Best Ale --
