Re: How does networking (communication) work when in the cloud

What do you mean "Nope?"

At GoDaddy.com, blahblah.dilgardfoods.com points to an IP address of ours.
Our router NATs that IP address to a Windows server.

Isn't that what Nathan said?

Nope...at least not in this context..

blahblah should be a host of some sort, the leftmost side of a FQDN is a
host.

In this: myserver.blahblah.dilgardfoods.com , blahblah is a subdomain.

There's only a few places, such as a domain search list, where the

leftmost

name is a subdomain.

Only hosts can have IP address, domains and subdomains can't.

I think that prevailing terminology would call blahblah a

the dilgardfoods.com "domain". If you "own" the domain, you can add

many

public

IP

address of your choice.

I gather that your network administrator pointed blahblah to a

firewall

on

you LAN.
