In the process of building a website, we often come into contact with some concepts, DNS is one of them, so what is the dns server we often hear? What is a DNS server?

Dns is an abbreviation for computer domain name system domain name system or domain name service. It consists of a parser and a domain name server. A domain name server is a server that stores the domain names and corresponding ip addresses of all hosts in the network, and has the function of translating domain names into ip addresses.

What is the use of the DNS server?

The function of the DNS server is to convert the domain name into an ip address that the network can recognize. First of all, in order to make it easier for us to access the servers on the network, we assign different IP addresses to each server, but there are so many websites on the Internet that it is impossible for us to remember the IP address of each website.

If there is an one-to-one (or many-to-one) relationship between domain name and ip address on the Internet, one-to-many dns can also be used to realize one-to-many. Although the domain name is easy for people to remember, only ip addresses are recognized between machines. The translation between them is called domain name resolution. Domain name resolution needs to be completed by a special domain name resolution server. Dns is the server for domain name resolution. He can convert the memorable domain name we entered into the IP address of the server we want to access. So that when we surf the Internet, we can use short and easy-to-remember domain names to access static IP hosts on the Internet. The process of mapping domain names to ip addresses is called "domain name resolution".

At this point, the study of "what is a DNS server" is over. I hope to be able to solve your doubts. The collocation of theory and practice can better help you learn, go and try it!
