For creating a DNS resource record, following pair of fields is required:<ul><li>_ipv6addr_ and _name_: The system creates the DNS resource record object within the zone embedded in the name field.

  - `creator` string: Creator for the RecordAAAA. Note that changing creator from or to 'SYSTEM' value is not allowed.
  - `disable` boolean: Determines if the RecordAAAA is disabled or not. False means that the RecordAAAA is enabled.
