Hello,
I have the SONIC gigabit fiber service and I need to edit the PTR information for the dynamic IP on my router's WAN interface. How do I do this please? Right now, it is just some generic 198-xx-xxx-xxx.fiber.dynamic.sonic.net., but I need to to resolve to my routers actual hostname on the WAN.
Thank you

You cannot change the PTR records for IPs provided by a dynamic IP service. (Static IP services are not available on our Fiber network.)

Tim,

Would a dynamic DNS service help you?

There are some free ones like no-ip (noip.com); sonic also has a dynamic DNS REST API.

There are also some disucssion about it on the forums.
