"IPAddress1/auto_create_ptr1, IPAddress2/auto_create_ptr2" Example: "10.0.0.4/TRUE, 10.0.0.44/FALSE, 10.0.0.55/TRUE"




Note: When you perform a CSV export of automatically created NS records using Infoblox API, the zone_nameservers field will have an empty value. Therefore, if you import the previously exported CSV file that includes automatically created NS records through the Infoblox GUI, then the CSV import fails and Grid Manager displays an error message.


Examples

This section contains examples of how to create data files for NS records. All examples use comma as the separator. You can use other supported separators, such as semicolon, space, or tab.

Adding an NS Record

Overwriting NS Record Data

Merging NS Record Data
