Understanding Domain Names
A domain name is a name of a server or device on the Internet which is
associated with an IP address. Similar to how the street address of your house is
one way to contact you and your phone number is another, both the IP address
and the domain name can be used to contact a server or device on the Internet.
While contacting you at your house address or with your phone number employ
different methods, using a domain name instead of the IP address actually uses
the same method, just a word based name is commonly easier to remember for
most people than a string of numbers.
Understanding the parts of a domain name can help to understand how IP
Manager works and what you need to be able to configure the device. A fully
qualified domain name (FQDN) generally has several parts.
Top Level Domain (TLD): The TLD is the ending suffix for a domain name
(.com, .net, .org, etc.)
Country Code Top Level Domain (ccTLD): This suffix is often used after the
TLD for most countries except the US (.ca, .uk, .au, etc.)
Domain name: This is the name registered with ICANN (Internet Corporation
for Assigned Names and Numbers) or the registry for a the country of the
