5. DNS (Domain Name System) – A DNS server is like an index of IP addresses
and Web host name addresses. When you type a Web address into your
browser, such as www.awbnetworks.com, a DNS server will find that name in
its index and translate it to a matching IP address, such as 211.21.189.106.
DNS server addresses are usually provided by service providers, however if
you want to specify certain other servers, this page allows you to enter primary
and secodary DNS addresses.
