This article provides a guide for dealing with a fully qualified domain name (FQDN).
What is a Fully Qualified Domain Name?
An FQDN, or a Fully Qualified Domain Name, is written with the hostname and the domain name, including the top-level domain, in that order: [hostname].[domain].[tld].
An FQDN might also be called an "absolute domain name" since it provides the absolute path of the host.
Fully Qualified Domain Name Examples
A fully qualified domain name is always written in this format: [hostname].[domain].[tld]. For example, a mail server on the example.com domain may use the FQDN mail.example.com.
Examples include:
- www.radwebhosting.com
- en.wikipedia.org
- ns1.serverprovider.net
