DNS:
The Domain Name Server translates the human readable machine name to IP address. Every
machine on the Internet has a unique IP address. A server generally has a static IP address. To
connect to a server, the client needs to know the IP of the server. However, generally the name
is used to connect to the server. Thus, the switch DNS client program (such as a browser) will
ask the DNS to resolve the IP address of the named server.
