You should always use the real domain. A fake domain cannot be
investigated remotely.
Also, I doubt that you can register domains at IANA, unless you're a
TLD, of course.

English is not my main language, which may be why I cannot understand
the sentence.

Stupid but common.

The real names and IP addresses, or the real configuration files would

The above is undecipherable to me so I will try a shoot in the dark:
if you have only one network prefix (for instance 150.163.35.0/24),
why not putting:
1 IN PTR iaibr1.dir.iai.int.
in the (unique) reverse file? I have the feeling that you think you
cannot have different domains in the right-hand parts of the reverse
zone file. But you can.
