If it's just for boundaries, you can do it like this (will miss some,
but better FN than FP):

/yourpattern.*\.[^\.]+\.([^\.]+\.[^\.]{2}|[^\.]{3,})$/

but even that isn't enough. the expressions must be "protected" even if
they are not in the top 2/3 labels. so instead of /dhcp/, on should use
/[-\.]dhcp[-\.]/ and so on.

while I am in, here are some funny ones:

/\.in-addr\.arpa\./
/\.nodnsyet\./
/\.unknown\./
/\.unassigned\./
...
etc.


now all this depends on what you do with...
