Splitting /24

[Casartello, Thomas]

Hello,


I'm trying to figure out a problem my network admin caused for me. We give a
certain address space on our network to our computer science academic
department for them to manage. We additionally allow them to manage the
reverse DNS for their address space. We used to give them a full /24 so all
we had to do was allow their server to manage that one zone and then we
transferred down their zone to our actual authoritative name servers. Now,
my network admin has decided to split that space up and is only giving them
half of that space (a /25.) I need to find a way to allow them to manage
their address space (207.159.173.0-207.159.173.127, but we want to have
control over 207.159.173.128-207.159.173.255.) While I understand it's kind
of a silly setup, I have to somehow make this happen.  Any suggestions on
ways I could do this? I'm assuming there's no way to split this zone in half
since I'm already at the lowest level domain possible
(173.159.207.in-addr.arpa.)

 

Thanks for any advice,

Tom
