Oh wait, you're USAF. You CAN bomb us into submission. In that case,
sure, we forgive you. :)

It is the name of the zone file which contains the reverse DNS entries
for IP addresses in 239.192.0.0/24 netblock. FWIW, this is part of a
reserved network which is described in RFC 2365:
6.2. The IPv4 Organization Local Scope -- 239.192.0.0/14
--
mail to this address is discarded unless "/dev/rob0"
or "not-spam" is in Subject: header
