                  Adding 100.64.0.0/10 Prefixes to the
                 IPv4 Locally-Served DNS Zones Registry

 Abstract

   RFC 6598 specifies that "Reverse DNS queries for Shared Address Space
   addresses [100.64.0.0/10] MUST NOT be forwarded to the global DNS
   infrastructure."

   This document formally directs IANA to add the associated zones to
   the "IPv4 Locally-Served DNS Zones Registry" to prevent such queries
   from accidentally leaking to the global DNS infrastructure.

Introduction [RFC 6598] specifies that "Reverse DNS queries for Shared Address Space addresses [100.64.0.0/10] MUST NOT be forwarded to the global DNS infrastructure." [RFC 6303] provides guidance on handling such queries. This document directs the IANA to add the IPv4 reverse zones corresponding to 100.64.0.0/10, a netblock reserved in [RFC 6598], to the "IPv4 Locally-Served DNS Zone Registry" established in [RFC 6303]. Unlike the addresses described in [RFC 1918], which are not expected to be seen by other parties, the addresses defined by [RFC 6598] are expected to be seen by parties other than those deploying the addresses. Therefore, it is more crucial that recursive nameservers default to serving these zones locally. 2. Changes to the IPv4 Locally-Served DNS Zones Registry IANA has added the zones listed in "RFC 6598 Zones" (Section 2.1) to the "IPv4 Locally-Served DNS Zone Registry". 2.1.

IANA Considerations Per this document, IANA has added the zones listed in "RFC 6598 Zones" (Section 2.1) to the "IPv4 Locally-Served DNS Zone Registry". IANA is reminded that an insecure delegation for these zones is required for compliance with [RFC 6303] to break the DNSSEC chain of trust. 4. Security Considerations This document does not present additional security risks to the Internet than those described in [RFC 6303] and [RFC 6598]. 5.
