## Domain-name - [RFC 1035](https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc1035) Internet domain names
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
v0.5.0
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
A domain name is a sequence of labels separated by dots, such as `foo.example`.
|
||
|
|
Each label may contain any bytes. The length of each label may not exceed 63
|
||
|
|
charactes. The total length of a domain name is limited to 253 (byte
|
||
|
|
representation is 255), but other protocols (such as SMTP) may apply even
|
||
|
|
smaller limits. A domain name label is case preserving, comparison is done in a
|
||
|
|
case insensitive manner.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The invariants on the length of domain names are preserved throughout the
|
||
|
|
module.
