Domain

In Microsoft Windows NT 4 and Microsoft Active Directory environments, a domain is a collection of computers defined by the administrator of a network that share a common directory database.

A domain has a unique name and provides access to the centralized user accounts and group accounts maintained by the domain administrator. Each domain has its own security policies and security relationships with other domains, and each domain represents a single security boundary of a Windows computer network. Active Directory is made up of one or more domains, each of which can span more than one physical location.

For DNS, a domain is any tree or subtree within the DNS namespace. Although the names for DNS domains often correspond to Active Directory domains, DNS domains should not be confused with Microsoft Windows and Active Directory networking domains.
