Step 5. Configuring the domain name of the virtual machine

At this step, you can specify the fully qualified domain name of the virtual machine.

To specify the domain name of the virtual machine:

  1. In the NetworkManager TUI menu, select Set system hostname.

    The screenshot shows the network settings selection window.

  2. This opens the Set Hostname window; in that window, specify the fully qualified domain name of the virtual machine in the Hostname field.

    First make sure that the DNS server has an A record for the specified domain name and that the domain name matches the IP address that you want to assign to this virtual machine.

    If the virtual machine has multiple network adapters and is connected to multiple network segments, use the domain name that corresponds to the network adapter connected to your organization's internal network.

    The screenshot shows the window for entering the domain name of the virtual machine.

  3. In the confirmation window, click OK.

    The screenshot shows the confirmation window for the virtual machine domain name.
