Domain Name Server (DNS)
The Domain Name System converts user-defined domain names into IP addresses. Each time a domain
name is assigned, this service translates the name into a numeric IP address. Domain Name System
servers maintain domain name databases and their corresponding IP addresses.
Use the Domain Name Server (DNS) page to enable and activate specific DNS servers.
