Features

  • IT staff maintain the College's DNS entries in both an internal and external DNS server.
  • Domain names are used to resolve a name (e.g. www.stonehill.edu) to it's IP address, which provides a pointer for where it is located.
  • Domain names are assigned to online services like a learning management system, web site or an email server.
  • Requests for new domain names are evaluated according to Policy F9.6 Domain Name.

Getting Started

  • Staff or faculty may submit a Domain Name Request for a new name or to modify or remove an existing name.  To do so please select Request a Domain Name in the upper right hand corner of this page.
