Configuring Domain Name Servers
Domain Name System (DNS) converts user-defined domain names into IP addresses. Each time a domain name
is assigned, the DNS service translates the name into a numeric IP address. For example, www.ipexample.com
is translated into 192.87.56.2. DNS servers maintain databases of domain names and their corresponding IP
addresses.
