Domain

HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Tcpip\Parameters\Interfaces\<interface-name>

Data type Range Default value
REG_SZ (Any valid DNS domain name) (Blank value. You must enter a valid value when you use Network in Control Panel to configure the interface.)

Description

Specifies the Domain Name System (DNS) domain name of the interface, as provided by DHCP.

The interface-specific DNS domain name is determined by the value of DhcpDomain, which is configured by DHCP, and Domain, which you can configure.

If these entries contain valid values, the user-configured value, Domain, takes precedence over the value of DhcpDomain.

Change method
