3.2.9 DNS

A Domain Name System (DNS) server is like an index of IP addresses and Web addresses. If

you type a Web address into your browser, such as www.router.com, a DNS server will find that

name in its index and the matching IP address. Most ISPs provide a DNS server for speed and

convenience. If your Service Provider connects you to the Internet with dynamic IP settings, it is

likely that the DNS server IP address is provided automatically. However, if there is a DNS server

that you would rather use, you need to specify the IP address of that DNS server here.
