# Serving the base domain (optional)
By default, this playbook sets up services on your Matrix server (`matrix.example.com`), but has it configured so that it presents itself as the base domain (`example.com`). To have this server officially be responsible for Matrix services for the base domain (`example.com`), you need to set up server delegation / redirection.
