        The static host name is the traditional <systemitem class="systemname">hostname</systemitem>, which can be chosen by the user, and is stored in the <filename>/etc/hostname</filename> file. The <quote>transient</quote> <systemitem class="systemname">hostname</systemitem> is a dynamic host name maintained by the kernel. It is initialized to the static host name by default, whose value defaults to <quote>localhost</quote>. It can be changed by <systemitem class="protocol">DHCP</systemitem> or <systemitem class="protocol">mDNS</systemitem> at runtime. The pretty <systemitem class="systemname">hostname</systemitem> is a free-form UTF8 host name for presentation to the user.

-        A host name can be a free-form string up to 64 characters in length, however it is recommended that the static and transient names consists only of 7 bit ASCII lower-case characters, no spaces or dots, and limits itself to the format allowed for <systemitem class="protocol">DNS</systemitem> domain name labels, even though this is not a strict requirement. The <application>hostnamectl</application> tool will enforce the following: Static and transient host names to consist of <literal>a-z</literal>, <literal>A-Z</literal>, <literal>0-9</literal>, <quote><literal>-</literal></quote>, <quote><literal>_</literal></quote> and <quote><literal>.</literal></quote> only, to not begin or end in a dot, and to not have two dots immediately following each other. The size limit of 64 charcters is enforced.
