What is the purpose of the inverse domain?

Answer Posted / sahiya riyas

The inverse domain is used to map an address to a name. This may happen, for example,when a server has received a request from a client to do a task. Although the server has a file that contains a list of authorized clients, only the IP address of the client (extracted from the received IP packet) is listed. The server asks its resolver to send a query to the DNS server to map an address to a name to determine if the client is on the authorized list.
