Solved full qualified host name for home laptop

hello,

the freebsd handbook says i should use a fully qualified host name but I am only using my laptop at home with cable internet. Its not connected to example.com so I don't know what to put. Do I call up my internet service provider and ask what their domain is?
 
If this question is answered please tag the thread "Solved". For Network connection problems is better to open a new thread with the related problem.
 
For my home network I use dicelan.home as a domain. I'm positive it doesn't exist on the internet so there's never any risk of overlap or conflicts. It also makes it easy to differentiate between a local domain and an internet domain.
