Description:

DNS (Domain Name System) is an internet service that translates domain names to IP Addresses. Every time
you use a domain name, therefore, a DNS service must translate the name into a corresponding IP address.
The Primary DNS Server (6) and Alternate DNS Server (7) consist of a sequence of four groups of numbers.
Each group can be up to three digits long and each group is separated by a period (dot character), as in this
example: 123.3.01.99
