It's the same process that is used to update a delegation in the root  
zone. For ccTLDs I believe there's some kind of web portal to allow  
such changes to be requested, but my experience is that the old text  
form also still works just fine.

I've done this a number of times over the past few years and have not  
had any problems.

I don't know what the process is for getting IPv6 addresses associated  
with host records in the VGRS COM/NET registry, but it seems like good  
information to share here if you find a definitive answer.
