37   * where:
38   * 
39   * ADDRESS         An 32 bit Internet address
40   * 
41   * PROTOCOL        An 8 bit IP protocol number
42   * 
43   * <BIT MAP>       A variable length bit map.  The bit map must be a
44   *                 multiple of 8 bits long.
45   * 
46   * The WKS record is used to describe the well known services supported by
47   * a particular protocol on a particular internet address.  The PROTOCOL
48   * field specifies an IP protocol number, and the bit map has one bit per
49   * port of the specified protocol.  The first bit corresponds to port 0,
50   * the second to port 1, etc.  If the bit map does not include a bit for a
51   * protocol of interest, that bit is assumed zero.  The appropriate values
52   * and mnemonics for ports and protocols are specified in [RFC-1010].
53   * 
54   * For example, if PROTOCOL=TCP (6), the 26th bit corresponds to TCP port
55   * 25 (SMTP).  If this bit is set, a SMTP server should be listening on TCP
56   * port 25; if zero, SMTP service is not supported on the specified
57   * address.
58   * 
59   * The purpose of WKS RRs is to provide availability information for
60   * servers for TCP and UDP.  If a server supports both TCP and UDP, or has
61   * multiple Internet addresses, then multiple WKS RRs are used.
62   * 
63   * WKS RRs cause no additional section processing.
64   * 
65   * In master files, both ports and protocols are expressed using mnemonics
66   * or decimal numbers.
