Now that services are running, you need to **finalize the installation process** (required for federation to work!) by [Configuring Service Discovery via .well-known](configuring-well-known.md).
If you need the base domain for anything else (such as hosting a website), you have to configure it manually, following the procedure described on the linked documentation.
However, if you do not need the base domain (`example.com`) for anything else, the easiest way of configuring it is to [serve the base domain](configuring-playbook-base-domain-serving.md) from the integrated web server. It will enable you to use a Matrix user identifier like `@<username>:example.com` while hosting services on a subdomain like `matrix.example.com`.
To configure Service Discovery in this way, add the following configuration to your `inventory/host_vars/matrix.example.com/vars.yml` file:
```yaml
matrix_static_files_container_labels_base_domain_enabled: true
```
