Provide the Database server details and click Next.
In the instance of single server farm, provide the current server and DB details. Since installing SharePoint 2016 in standalone machine is not supported, we need to add the current server to the domain in order to configure single server farm environment. Refer to this blog post on Configuring Active Directory Domain Services for the SharePoint 2016 Environment.
