Study Notes
Understanding DNS
- Computers identify each other using unique numbers called IP addresses.
- Computers do not understand human languages, including English.
- DNS (Domain Name System) acts as a translator between humans and computers to facilitate communication.
Role of DNS in Website Loading
- When a website's address is typed in the web browser's URL bar, DNS translates the domain name to the corresponding IP address.
- DNS maintains a table that maps domain names to their IP addresses.
- The translated IP address is then sent to the web browser, allowing it to understand the request and load the website.
Analogy for DNS Functionality
- DNS can be likened to a translator between languages, such as English and French, facilitating communication between humans and computers.
- Just as a human translator helps communicate between people speaking different languages, DNS translates human-readable domain names to computer-readable IP addresses.
