Probably a Supid question   but what type of entry(record) needs to be added?  
A reverse lookup is often referred to as reverse resolving, or more specifically reverse DNS lookup, and is accomplished using a "reverse IN-ADDR entry" in the form of a PTR record.

Just like "Host A" records returns IP Address, PTR records returns names for IP address.
