Just a domain name.
Those 4 characters are valid as a hostname, which can be used unqualified in a URI, e.g:
brong@zula:~$ sudo vi /etc/hosts brong@zula:~$ wget http://http/ Resolving http (http)... 127.0.0.1 Connecting to http (http)|127.0.0.1|:80... failed: Connection refused.
But this doesn't mean that URI schemes and hostnames are identical, just because they can contain the same characters.
