Reverse DNS zones perform the opposite task as Forward Lookup Zones. They return the fully qualified domain name (FQDN) of a given IP address. For example, a client device could send the IP address of 192.168.1.100 to a DNS Server. If the server hosted a reverse zone that included that IP address, it would return the FQDN for that address, such as mail.mushaaf.com.
