DNS means Domain Name System
DNS is a protocol that makes the translation of a domain name to a ipaddress on the Internet. This website has, for example, as IPAddress: 195.211.73.41 but that is difficult to remember, so remember people: www.wat-betekent.nl. DNS is a distributed database that contains host and domain names and their associated IP addresses. DNS eliminates the need to maintain a list of IP addresses on each computer. DNS ensures that the list is available on a number of different computers on the network. YouTube OLEizGPoB5w [/youtube] Introduction to DNS
