This address is reserved for the standards-defined procedure that discovers a network's NAT64 translation prefix through DNS64.

This address is neither an ordinary source nor a reachable public destination. IP implementations reserve it for the discovery procedure.

A system administrator may see it in DNS responses for ipv4only.arpa, NAT64 diagnostics, packet captures, or transition-network tests.

Firewall tip: do not treat it as a client identity or general-purpose endpoint. Permit only the narrow discovery behavior expected by the NAT64 design.
