DNS(Domain Name System)

•An application layer protocol defines how the application processes


running on different systems, pass the messages to each other.
•DNS stands for Domain Name System.
•DNS is a directory service that provides a mapping between the name of a
host on the network and its numerical address.
•DNS is required for the functioning of the internet.
•Each node in a tree has a domain name, and a full domain name is a
sequence of symbols specified by dots.
•DNS is a service that translates the domain name into IP addresses. This
allows the users of networks to utilize user-friendly names when looking for
other hosts instead of remembering the IP addresses.
•For example, suppose the FTP site at EduSoft had an IP address of
132.147.165.50, most people would reach this site by specifying
ftp.EduSoft.com. Therefore, the domain name is more reliable than IP
address.
