local
.local is a pseudo-top-level domain used by the mDNS network discovery protocol. It is also often used by administrators of Microsoft Windows Active Directory environments as the top-level DNS domain for an internal company network that is not intended to be reachable directly from the outside world. If a computer running Mac OS X is not assigned a domain name by the DNS server, it will identify itself as "hostname.local". The host name can be set in the Sharing Preference Pane.
