translation of this IP address to and from its domain name. Domain names are often referred to simply as domains and domain name

registrants are frequently referred to as domain owners, although domain name registration with a registrar does not confer any legal

ownership of the domain name, only an exclusive right of use. This article primarily discusses the group of domain names that are

offered by domain name registrars for registration by the public. The Domain Name System article discusses the technical facilities and

infrastructure of the domain name space and the hostname article deals with specific information about the use of domain names as

identifiers of network hosts. Domain name space The hierarchical domain name system, organized into zones, each served by a name

server. The domain name space consists of a tree of domain names. Each node in the tree holds information associated with the domain

name. The tree sub-divides into zones beginning at the root zone. Parts of a domain name A domain name consists of one or more parts,

technically called labels, that are conventionally concatenated, and delimited by dots, such as example.com. * The right-most label

conveys the top-level domain; for example, the domain name www.example.com belongs to the top-level domain com. * The hierarchy of

domains descends from the right to the left label in the name; each label to the left specifies a subdivision, or subdomain of the domain

the right. For example: the label example specifies a subdomain of the com domain, and www is a subdomain of example.com. This tree of

labels may consist of 127 levels. Each label may contain up to 63 ASCII characters. The full domain name may not exceed a total length

of 253 characters. In practice, some domain registries may have shorter limits. * A hostname is a domain name that has at least one

associated IP address. For example, the domain names www.example.com and example.com are also hostnames, whereas the com domain is not.

Top-level domains The top-level domains (TLDs) are the highest level of domain names of the Internet. They form the DNS root zone of the

hierarchical Domain Name System. Every domain name ends in a top-level or first-level domain label. When the Domain Name System was

created in the 1980s, the domain name space was divided into two main groups of domains. The country code top-level domains (ccTLD) were

primarily based on the two-character territory codes of ISO-3166 country abbreviations. In addition, a group of seven generic top-level

domains (gTLD) was implemented which represented a set of categories of names and multi-organizations. These were the domains GOV, EDU,
