- Name Helpers
- ------------
- Sometimes you want to look up an address in the DNS instead of a name.
- Dnspython provides a helper functions for converting between addresses
- and their "reverse map" form in the DNS.
- For example:
- ========= =========================================================================
- Address DNS Reverse Name
- ========= =========================================================================
- 127.0.0.1 1.0.0.127.in-addr.arpa.
- ::1 1.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.ip6.arpa.
- ========= =========================================================================

- .. autofunction:: dns.reversename.to_address
- Dnspython also provides helpers for converting E.164 numbers (i.e.
- telephone numbers) into the names used for them in the DNS.
- For example:
- ================ ==================================
- Number DNS E.164 Name
- ================ ==================================
- +1.650.555.1212 2.1.2.1.5.5.5.0.5.6.1.e164.arpa.
- +44 20 7946 0123 3.2.1.0.6.4.9.7.0.2.4.4.e164.arpa.
