BIND9 & IPv6

Assuming your zone loaded properly, it looks like your problem is the way
you used the dig command.  Take a look at the question formed from the
command you entered.  It created a lookup for an 'A' record-- not the 'PTR'
record you wanted to look up.  The correct syntax would be 'dig @servername
-x 3ffe:80e8:120::1'

I have reload BIND.

Now, in localhost, i have try a dig:
