The entire hostname has a maximum of___________________?

Correct answer: A. 255 characters

  • A. 255 characters
  • B. 127 characters
  • C. 63 characters
  • D. 31 characters

Explanation

A complete DNS hostname may contain up to 255 characters or octets, although each individual label within it is limited to 63 characters. The 63-character limit therefore applies to a label, not the entire hostname.
