<p></p> <p><b>New page</b></p><div>'''FQDN''' is short for Fully Qualified Domain Name. Refers to an internet DNS name, complete with top level domain (TLD), resolvable from any network anywhere without special help.<br /> <br /> For example, '''ph34r''' is a server name, but '''ph34r.tehinterweb.net''' is an FQDN. If you happen to be a member of the tehinterweb.net internet domain, you can simply type '''ping ph34r''' and get DNS resolution, but if you're, say, a member of coxcable.net, you would need to use the FQDN and refer to it specifically as '''ph34r.tehinterweb.net'''.<br /> <br /> note: this is not a FreeBSD-specific term.<br /> <br /> [[Category:FreeBSD Terminology]]</div>
