3.5.4.4 DNS

Domain Name Service (DNS) stores and associates many types of information with
domain names.

Most importantly, it translates domain names (computer hostnames) to IP addresses. It
also lists mail exchanges servers accepting e-mail for each domain.

In providing a worldwide keyword-based redirection service, DNS is an essential

the domain name www.example.com might translate to 198.105.232.4.

To configure the DNS address, click on the DNS link in the left navigation bar, show
