It's the reverse DNS that the owner of the IP address space controls.
So, what happens when you do,
www.example.aarnet.edu.au A IN 203.7.132.1
in your live DNS,
The name www.example.aarnet.edu.au will resolve to 203.7.132.1
It will resolve ONLY within aarnet.edu.au but NOT the INTERNET.
Incorrect.
The authority to associate NAME to ip address has to be propagated up to
the ROOT servers. You mean
to say that AARNET can do this without the express approval from the
owners of 203.7.132.1 ? NO, aarnet.edu.au cannot, otherwise it is against
the rules and perhaps against the law.
The rest of my responses is implied by the above.
