A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories. Title : Reverse DNS Naming Convention for CIDR Address Blocks Author(s) : Joe Gersch Dan Massey Eric Osterweil Filename : draft-gersch-dnsop-revdns-cidr-02.txt Pages : 24 Date : 2012-05-02 The reverse DNS naming method is used to specify a complete IP address. At present there is no standard way for the reverse DNS to handle address ranges. As an example, there is no formal mechanism to define 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. This draft proposes a naming convention for encoding CIDR address blocks into the reverse DNS namespace.
