The Domain Name System
A domain is a location on a network, for instance
example.com
. On the Internet,
domain names are mapped to the IP addresses to which they should refer by the
Domain Name System (DNS). This allows you to enter “www.example.com” into your
browser and reach the correct place on the Internet even if the IP address of the
website’s server has changed.
