fully qualified domain name
(FQDN) The full name of a system, consisting of its local ref="module.php?name=Lexikon&file=search&eid=1&query=hostname">hostname and its ref="module.php?name=Lexikon&file=search&eid=1&query=domain">domain name, including a ref="module.php?name=Lexikon&file=search&eid=1&query=top-level domain">top-level domain (tld). For example, "venera" is a hostname and "venera.isi.edu" is an FQDN. An FQDN should be sufficient to determine a unique ref="module.php?name=Lexikon&file=search&eid=1&query=Internet address">Internet address for any host on the ref="module.php?name=Lexikon&file=search&eid=1&query=Internet">Internet. This process, called "name resolution", uses the ref="module.php?name=Lexikon&file=search&eid=1&query=Domain Name System">Domain Name System (DNS). With the explosion of interest in the ref="module.php?name=Lexikon&file=search&eid=1&query=Internet">Internet following the advent of the ref="module.php?name=Lexikon&file=search&eid=1&query=World-Wide Web">World-Wide Web, domain names (especially the most significant two components, e.g. "sun.com", and especially in the ".com" tld) have become a valuable part of many companies' "brand". The allocation of these, overseen by ref="module.php?name=Lexikon&file=search&eid=1&query=ICANN">ICANN, has therefore become highly political and is performed by a number of different registrars. There are different registries for the different tlds. A final dot on the end of a FQDN can be used to tell the DNS that the name is fully qualified and so needs no extra suffixes added, but it is not required. See also ref="module.php?name=Lexikon&file=search&eid=1&query=network, the">network, the, ref="module.php?name=Lexikon&file=search&eid=1&query=network address">network address.
