What do others think?
I'm uncomfortable with both "portion" and "making up." Labels are the "atoms" from which FQDN compounds are constructed, and "portion" isn't precise enough to capture that; and I don't think that "making up" will translate well beyond English. How about: "Label - The identifier of an individual node in the sequence of nodes that comprise a fully-qualified domain name." - Lyman _______________________________________________ DNSOP mailing list DNSOP@ietf.org https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/dnsop
