- <h1>Special-Use Domain Names</h1>
- <p>Domain names reserved by <abbr title="Internet Assigned Numbers Authority">IANA</abbr> for special uses</p>
- </header>
- <p>For an in-depth explanation of what each special-use domain name is used for, I recommend checking out the <a href="https://www.iana.org/assignments/special-use-domain-names/special-use-domain-names.xhtml">special-use domain names</a> page on the <abbr title="Internet Assigned Numbers Authority">IANA</abbr> website. This page simply breaks the list of special-use domain names into four broad groups based on characteristics that they have.</p>
- <h2>Name server names</h2>
- <p>These names are available for use with your own intranet's name server.</p>
- <ul>
- <li>10.in-addr.arpa.</li>
- <li>16.172.in-addr.arpa.</li>
- <li>17.172.in-addr.arpa.</li>
- <li>18.172.in-addr.arpa.</li>
- <li>19.172.in-addr.arpa.</li>
- <li>20.172.in-addr.arpa.</li>
- <li>21.172.in-addr.arpa.</li>
- <li>22.172.in-addr.arpa.</li>
- <li>23.172.in-addr.arpa.</li>
- <li>24.172.in-addr.arpa.</li>
- <li>25.172.in-addr.arpa.</li>
- <li>26.172.in-addr.arpa.</li>
- <li>27.172.in-addr.arpa.</li>
- <li>28.172.in-addr.arpa.</li>
- <li>29.172.in-addr.arpa.</li>
- <li>30.172.in-addr.arpa.</li>
- <li>31.172.in-addr.arpa.</li>
- <li>168.192.in-addr.arpa.</li>
- <li>test.</li>
- </ul>
- <h2>Dynamic names</h2>
- <p>These names are handled dynamically by software and should not be used with a name server.</p>
- <ul>
- <li>254.169.in-addr.arpa.</li>
- <li>8.e.f.ip6.arpa.</li>
- <li>9.e.f.ip6.arpa.</li>
- <li>a.e.f.ip6.arpa.</li>
- <li>b.e.f.ip6.arpa.</li>
- <li>onion.</li>
- <li>local.</li>
- </ul>
- <h2>Static names</h2>
- <p>These names are assigned their values based on standards and should not be used with a name server.</p>
- <ul>
- <li>invalid.</li>
- <li>localhost.</li>
- </ul>
- <h2>Unspecial names</h2>
- <p>These names are considered special by <abbr title="Internet Assigned Numbers Authority">IANA</abbr>, but they are not supposed to actually be treated as special in any way.</p>
- <ul>
- <li>example.</li>
- <li>example.com.</li>
- <li>example.net.</li>
- <li>example.org.</li>
- </ul>
