Purpose of configuring Domain Name in cisco Router and ASA

I have seen some examples where domain name is configured in Cisco Router or ASA Firewall.
I am not sure the purpose of it in real world.
Any idea?

Thanks

In the LAB, I can create Switches and Routers without naming them and it still works as long as they have IP addresses on the interfaces.
As long as Domain name, I have not try to create one in the LAB

in some cases (for specific purposes) host name and domain name cannot be at default values.
- That's what I was trying to find out.  the purpose.
- does it have to match the company hosted domain ?
