# Domain Status

In addition to domain slots, each domain in DMARCeye can have a specific **status**. Understanding these statuses helps you manage your domains effectively and optimize your slot usage.

### **Active**

An **active domain** is fully set up and being monitored.

* DMARC reports are being received and processed
* The domain is counted toward your **domain slot limit**
* All monitoring and features are applied

### **Pending (formerly “Inactive”)**

A **pending domain** is added to your account but not yet fully configured.

* DMARC records may be missing or not correctly set
* No reports are being received yet
* The domain **still occupies a domain slot**

This status typically means setup is incomplete and requires action (e.g., DNS configuration).

### **Parked**

A **parked domain** is one you've set aside — it stays in your account but is not monitored. Parking can be a deliberate, long-term choice (for domains you own but don't send from) as well as a way to free up a slot. See [Parking a domain](/parking-domain).

* Monitoring is paused
* No reports are processed
* The domain **does NOT count toward your domain slot limit**

Parking is useful if you want to keep a domain in your account without using up a slot. You can reactivate it anytime by un-parking it (as long as you have a free slot available).
