💡 Difference between records and subdomains

In practice, let us consider the name foo.sol . If we want to find the domain's A record, containing an associated IPv4 address, then we can find it by querying \1A.foo.sol, with \1 the character of code value 1. The specification makes use of this prefix in order to differentiate between actual domains and records, which means that it is still possible to use the A.foo.sol subdomain with no collision. In addition to this, the special \1.foo.sol is reserved to hold the list of all currently initialized records for a given subdomain

Note: \0 and \1 are convenient notations for:

  • \0 = \x00.
  • \1 = \x01.
