• IP of the netmask.
• IP of the gateway.
• IP of the DNS Server, if applicable.
• Host name (the name will identify the computer on the Internet, such as SL4020.patton.com ).
• Domain name (the name that will identify one or more IP addresses). For example, the patton.com domain
is used by Patton Electronics Company. That domain can include multiple hostnames (such as
SL4020 .patton.com, ftp .patton.com, and so on) that point to individual computers on the Patton network.
In short, for the hostname URL http://www.patton.com , the domain name is patton.com .
