Actually, it addresses delegation of in-addr.arpa zones that correlate
to IP networks that are subnetted on Non-Octet Boundaries.  That is to
say anything other than:

/8, /16, /24 network prefixes...


If you have a copy of DNS & BIND 4th Edition, checkout page 236 for
narrative descriptions and case scenarios (also check the O'Reilly site
for errata, as there are a couple of minor typo's in a couple of the
$GENERATE examples...
http://www.oreilly.com/catalog/dns4/errata/dns4.confirmed).

If you do not have a copy of DNS & BIND, hmmmmmmm....... :) ... No time
like the present...
(If I had a penny for every time I sold a copy of this book, hey
Cricket... :)


Thanks,


Dave...
