DNS Settings

Dynamic domain name resolution requires a special DNS server. This server maps domain names to IP addresses and processes the resolution requests of clients.

Context

After receiving a resolution request, the DNS server checks whether the domain name belongs to its authorized sub-domain. If yes, the server translates the domain name into an IP address according to the database, and then sends the result to the client. If the server cannot resolve the domain name, it performs the resolution operation specified in the request sent by the client.
