What value to use for Asus router domain name field?

[Jack Yaz]

I'm starting to dabble with Windows Server, and I have created a domain (and forest) with my.exampledomain.co.uk (not literally but it is a subdomain of a public domain i own)

For now, the Asus will still be providing dhcp and dns, but clients will use the windows server for dns with the Asus specified as a forwarder.

What value, if any, do I need to use in the Asus domain name field?

You can pretty much use anything except .local which is reserved for Avahi/Bonjour (mDNS) apps.

I suggest most folks to use .home/corp and in some cases .mail if they don't have their own domain.

Since you're playing with Windows Server - might want to review this to avoid trouble...
