+short_description: Configure Infoblox NIOS PTR records
+description:
+  - Adds and/or removes instances of PTR record objects from
+    Infoblox NIOS servers.  This module manages NIOS C(record:ptr) objects
+    using the Infoblox WAPI interface over REST.
+requirements:
+  - infoblox_client

+  name:
+    description:
+      - The name of the DNS PTR record in FQDN format to add or remove from
+        the system.
+        The field is required only for an PTR object in Forward Mapping Zone.

+      - The domain name of the DNS PTR record in FQDN format.
+    required: true
+  ttl:
+    description:
+      - Time To Live (TTL) value for the record.
+        A 32-bit unsigned integer that represents the duration, in seconds, that the record is valid (cached).
+        Zero indicates that the record should not be cached.
+  extattrs:
+    description:
+      - Allows for the configuration of Extensible Attributes on the
+        instance of the object.  This argument accepts a set of key / value
+        pairs for configuration.
+  comment:
+    description:
+      - Configures a text string comment to be associated with the instance
+        of this object.  The provided text string will be configured on the
+        object instance. Maximum 256 characters.
+  state:
+    description:
+      - Configures the intended state of the instance of the object on
+        the NIOS server.  When this value is set to C(present), the object
+        is configured on the device and when this value is set to C(absent)
+        the value is removed (if necessary) from the device.
