   The current reverse DNS naming method is used to specify a complete
   IP address.  There currently is no standard way for it to handle
   address ranges; for example, there is no formal mechanism for
   specifying a reverse DNS name for the block of addresses specified by
   the IPv4 prefix 129.82.0.0/16.  Defining such a reverse DNS naming
   convention would be useful for a number of applications.  These
   include applications for secure BGP routing, and applications that
   need host-information for a device owning a complete IPv6 address
   block.  This draft proposes a naming convention for encoding CIDR
   address blocks in the reverse DNS.
