<div><p>This topic provides an overview of domain registration, with links
|
||
|
to other reference sites for setting up your own domain space.</p>
|
||
|
<p>Domain Name System (DNS) allows you to serve names and addresses on an
|
||
|
intranet, or internal network. It also allows you to serve names and addresses
|
||
|
to the rest of the world through the Internet. If you want to set up domains
|
||
|
on the Internet, you are required to register a domain name.</p>
|
||
|
<p>If you are setting up an intranet, you are not required to register a domain
|
||
|
name for internal use. Whether to register an intranet name depends on whether
|
||
|
you want to ensure that no one else can ever use the name on the Internet,
|
||
|
independent of your internal use. Registering a name that you are going to
|
||
|
use internally ensures that you will never have a conflict if you later want
|
||
|
to use the domain name externally.</p>
|
||
|
<p>Domain registration can be performed by direct contact with an authorized
|
||
|
domain name registrar, or through some Internet Service Providers (ISPs).
|
||
|
Some ISPs offer a service to submit domain name registration requests on your
|
||
|
behalf. The Internet Network Information Center (InterNIC) maintains a directory
|
||
|
of all domain name registrars that are authorized by the Internet Corporation
|
||
|
for Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN).</p>
