### Steps

2. Create the following DNS records:
    
    
    - **A record** → Service IPv4
    - **AAAA record** → Service IPv6
3. Verify propagation using the ***<span style="color: rgb(230, 126, 35);">[DNSChecker](https://dnschecker.org/)</span>***.

    - The system will reboot after applying changes.
    - PTR updates may take a few hours due to DNS caching.

    - For SMTP servers, IPv6 may need to be disabled on the VM.
