In domain names, the delimiter that separates different parts (or levels) of the domain is the period (or dot). For example, in the domain "www.example.com," the periods separate the subdomain ("www"), the second-level domain ("example"), and the top-level domain ("com"). Each part of the domain represents a different level in the domain hierarchy.
The dot in a qualified domain name (QDN) separates different levels of the domain hierarchy, indicating the structure of the domain. Each segment to the left of the dot represents a more specific level, with the rightmost part being the top-level domain (TLD), such as .com or .org. This hierarchical organization helps in efficiently locating and accessing resources on the internet. The dot at the end of a fully qualified domain name denotes the root of the DNS hierarchy, emphasizing its complete and absolute nature.
