Abstract:
The Internet Domain Name System (DNS) defines a tree of names
starting with root, ".", immediately below which are top level
domain (TLD) names such as ".com" and ".us". In June 1999 RFC2606
reserved a small number of TLD names for use in documentation
examples, private testing, experiments, and other circumstances in
which it is desirable to avoid conflict with current or future
actual TLD names in the DNS.
There has been significant evolution of Internet engineering and
operation practices since RFC2606 was published. In February 2013
RFC6761 defined criteria and procedures for reserving a domain name
for special use, and established an IANA registry for such names.
This document reserves eight domain name labels for special use in
accordance with the criteria and procedures of RFC6761: localdomain,
domain, lan, home, host, corp, mail, and exchange.
It is important to note that TLD names may be reserved, in other
contexts, for policy, political, or other reasons that are distinct
from the IETF's concern with Internet engineering and operations.
This document reserves TLD names only for operational and
engineering reasons.
