An example entry of what? A control panel or a actual bind config?

A good explanation of reverse DNS can be found here.

Is this for Reverse DNS or Round Robin DNS?

Reverse. Round Robin is very simple - just add two identical A records, e.g.

tsunami.davz.net. A IN 86400 66.98.218.34
tsunami.davz.net. A IN 86400 67.15.128.71

This is sending half the requests to 66.98.218.34 and the other half to 67.15.128.71 (roughly). (if you have some b/w and want to help share the load of hosting the videos (of the asian tsunami) on tsunami.davz.net then please let me know - I am pushing 50mb/sec now.)
