This article uses easy-to-understand examples to introduce what is a domain name server, the content is very detailed, interested friends can refer to, hope to be helpful to you.

Domain name Server (Domain Name Server), referred to as DNS, is a server that translates domain names (domain name) and corresponding IP addresses (IP address).

A table of domain names and corresponding IP addresses is saved in DNS to resolve the domain name of the message. The software that translates domain names into IP addresses is called domain name system.

After you register the domain name and purchase the hosting service, you need to resolve the domain name to the purchased host in order to see the content of the website. In most cases, after changing the DNS domain name server of the domain name, you can't see the content of the site right away, but it will take several hours to open your site.

To put it simply, the domain name server is like a translator for human and computer interaction, which is used to manage domain names.

For example, for Baidu search engine, ordinary users will enter http://www.Baidu.com when browsing this site, and few people will remember what the IP of this Server is? This is just like when we greet a friend, we must call his name, and almost no one asks for each other's ID number.

However, because it is IP that really identifies the machine on Internet, when the user enters Domain Name in the browser, the browser must first go to a host with the corresponding information of Domain Name and IP to query the IP of this computer, and the host to be queried is called Domain Name Server, or DNS for short.

Since ISP dial-up servers generally have a default DNS, you don't have to set up DNS. If you need to specify a DNS, you must know the exact IP of this DNS.

The DNS setting method is as follows: open the "Properties" of "TCP/IP" in "Network" under "Control Panel", select "enable DNS" in the "DNS Settings" column, and add the IP address of DNS.

About what is a domain name server to share here, I hope that the above content can be of some help to you, can learn more knowledge. If you think the article is good, you can share it for more people to see.
