Introduction:
- The Internet is a global wide area network that connects
computer systems across the world.

- Include high-bandwidth data lines that comprise the Internet

"backbone."

=> connect to Internet hubs

To distribute data to other locations

such as web servers and ISPs.

Domain Name System (DNS)
 The Domain Name System (DNS) is a distributed directory that resolves human-readable hostnames into
machine-readable IP addresses
 DNS is also a directory of crucial information about domain names, such as email servers (MX records) and sending
verification (DKIM, SPF, DMARC), TXT record verification of domain ownership, and even SSH fingerprints (SSHFP).
 By using DNS, users connect through DNS which is managing a huge mapping database to IP address.
DNS Types
1. DNS Resolver
A DNS resolver (recursive resolver), is designed to receive DNS
queries, which include a human-readable hostname such as
“www.gch1633.com”, and is responsible for tracking the IP
address for that hostname.
2. DNS Root Server
The root server is the first step in the journey from hostname
to IP address. The DNS Root Server extracts the Top Level
Domain (TLD) from the user’s query — for example,
www.example.com — and provides details for the .com TLD
Name Server. In turn, that server will provide details for
domains with the .com DNS zone, including “gch1633.com”.
3. Authoritative DNS Server
Higher level servers in the DNS hierarchy define which DNS
server is the “authoritative” name server for a specific
hostname, meaning that it holds the up-to-date information for
that hostname.
