record:rpz:aaaa:ipaddress : Response Policy Zone Substitute IPv6 Address Rule object.

An RPZ Substitute (IPv6 Address) Rule maps an IP address represented by a host name to a substitute IPv6 address. To define a specific address-to-address mapping, add an RPZ Substitute (IPv6 Address) Rule to a previously defined Response Policy Zone.

This record represents the substitution rule for IP trigger policy. It matches IP addresses that would otherwise appear in AAAA record in the “answer” section of DNS response.

You should use this object to create IP address substitution rules instead usage CNAMEIpAddress object.
