Summary
Domains refer to Internet domains such as stanford.edu, yahoo.com.
-
Associated Fields:
-
Name - Domain
names must obey Internet naming conventions: only alphanumeric characters
and hyphens are allowed. No trailing hyphens should exist. Note that once
a domain has been created, the domain name cannot be modified except to
change case.
Allow Names - If "yes",
a Node can have the same name as a subdomain. For instance,
cs.stanford.edu could be both a Node and a subdomain. If "no",
if the subdomain "cs.stanford.edu already existed, the Node
"cs.stanford.edu" would not be allowed. By default, this is "no".
In order for a user to be allowed to assign a Node the same name as a subdomain,
the user be in a Group with the subdomain. Having "All Groups" is not
sufficient.
Limited - If "yes", this
Domain can only contain names from a short list. This list includes
names like "www" and "ftp".
Group - This Admin Team can
only be modified by Users with rights to this Group and rights to
Admin Team objects.
Comment - Useful information
can be added here. This field is searchable with Full Search. Only printable
characters are valid for comments. The printable character set consists of
the alphabet, any numbers, all punctuation and spaces. For example, the
carriage return is a non-printable character.

Special Domains
-
.sunet - Names in the .sunet domain are only
resolved for Stanford hosts. This is useful for hosts on private address spaces
which are not reachable from the Internet.
.NoDomain - Names in the .NoDomain domain are never resolved by DNS servers. Typically,
names in this domain are used as placeholders.
