Interesting proposal for a top-level domain (TLD) that you could use internally on your LAN that will never be available out on the public Internet. So you could give your servers names ending in “.internal” and those addresses would not conflict with public addresses.
There are a number of similar “special use domains” in RFC6761 - https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc6761
#ICANN #DNS #IETF
