`REV` returns the reverse lookup domain for an IP network. For
|
|
example `REV('1.2.3.0/24')` returns `3.2.1.in-addr.arpa.` and
|
|
`REV('2001:db8:302::/48)` returns `2.0.3.0.8.b.d.0.1.0.0.2.ip6.arpa.`.
|
|
This is used in `D()` functions to create reverse DNS lookup zones.
|
|
|
|
This is a convenience function. You could specify `D('3.2.1.in-addr.arpa`,
|
|
...` if you like to do things manually but why would you risk making
|
|
typos?
|
|
|
|
`REV` complies with RFC2317, "Classless in-addr.arpa delegation"
|
|
for netmasks of size /25 through /31.
|
|
While the RFC permits any format, we abide by the recommended format:
|
|
`FIRST/MASK.C.B.A.in-addr.arpa` where `FIRST` is the first IP address
|
|
of the zone, `MASK` is the netmask of the zone (25-31 inclusive),
|
|
and A, B, C are the first 3 octets of the IP address. For example
|
|
`172.20.18.130/27` is located in a zone named
|
|
`128/27.18.20.172.in-addr.arpa`
|
|
|
|
If the address does not include a "/" then `REV` assumes /32 for IPv4 addresses
|
|
and /128 for IPv6 addresses.
|
|
|
|
Note that the lower bits (the ones outside the netmask) must be zeros. They are not
|
|
zeroed out automatically. Thus, `REV('1.2.3.4/24') is an error. This is done
|
|
to catch typos.

);

|
In the future we plan on adding a flag to `A()` which will insert
|
|
the correct PTR() record if the appropriate `D(REV()` domain (i.e. `.arpa` domain) has been
|
|
defined.
