This document describes the output format used between Passive DNS query interface. The output format description
includes also a common meaning per Passive DNS system.
This format originated as a discussion between Aaron Kaplan, Paul Vixie, Henry Stern and Alexandre (Adulau) in ~ 2011.
It was submitted to the IETF in 2014 and since then had a few minor updates.
It is being used by multiple operators of passive DNS services to offer an identical output format for queries to a passive DNS database.
This allows the person issuing the query to combined and/or compare results.
