Thanks for the link - good to see an authoritative reference on the issue.

I'd recommend the IPv6 reverse DNS info on the Bitfolk wiki:

https://tools.bitfolk.com/wiki/IPv6#Reverse_DNS

Despite a couple of transposition errors with the reverse reording of my
IPv6 address (par for the course I imagine!) I was up-and-running in less
than 10 minutes with those instructions.

Of course, if you are not running your own DNS there'll be a bit more work
to do.
