The Internet is moving towards the deployment of an OSI lower layers infrastructure. This infrastructure comprises the connectionless network protocol (CLNP) and supporting routing protocols. Also required as part of this infrastructure is support in the Domain Name System (DNS) for mapping between names and NSAP addresses.
This document defines the format of one new Resource Record (RR) for the DNS for domain name-to-NSAP mapping. The RR may be used with any NSAP address format. This document supercedes RFC1348.
NSAP-to-name translation is accomplished through use of the PTR RR (see STD 13, RFC1035 for a description of the PTR RR). This paper describes how PTR RRs are used to support this translation.
