46 %i and %r also allow explicitly defining the separator; eg %.i or %_r. Dot/period (.), dash (-),
47 and underscore (_) are the only characters supported since DNS names may not contain most
48 other non-alphanumerics.

53 %blank% may be used to specifically prevent template expansion on a segment of a block if
54 desired; eg, if 192.168.23.0/24 has "unused-%i.example.com" set, adding an A+PTR template
55 for 192.168.23.48/30 of "%blank%" will leave 192.168.23.48 through .51 without PTR records
56 unless specific entries exist for those IPs.
