== Reverse lookup if your domain is hosted elsewhere ==
 
If you administer a domain that is not hosted with us, then '''we''' can add an entry into our control system specifying your choice of domain name (optionally including subdomains) specifically to then allow you to set up entries on our systems that will define a number of individual reverse lookup mappings from your AAISP addresses to individual names below your ‘base’ domain name.

An example is given in the next section. On our systems you will define a number of records, one (or more) per address of yours, and we append your chosen domain name to each to form a reverse lookup (PTR) record that we define and publish for you. You can ask for several of your domain names to be set up on our systems. Such a domain name can include your choice of subdomain in your request.
