DNS

Domain Name System (DNS) is an Internet service that translates the domain name into IP

address. Because the domain name is alphabetic, it is easier to remember. The Internet,

however, is based on IP addresses. Every time you use a domain name, DNS translates the

name into the corresponding IP address. For example, the domain name www.example.com

might be translated to 198.105.232.4. The DNS has its own network. If one DNS server does

not know how to translate a particular domain name, it asks another one, and so on, until the

correct IP address is returned.

Choose

Service > DNS

. The DNS page that is displayed contains DNS, IPv6 DNS and

DDNS.
