Questions about ip address converter

Why does the decimal value look so large?
The four octets are one unsigned 32-bit number, so 255.255.255.255 is 4294967295 in decimal.
What is the reverse DNS name?
The in-addr.arpa form used by DNS to look up the name of an address. It is a lookup key, not a guarantee that a name record exists.
How do I tell private from public?
The private ranges are listed in the address type row. Anything outside them is a public address, which is routable on the internet.
