2. Domain Name Service
DNS stands for Domain Name System. The main function of DNS is to translate domain names
into IP Addresses, which computers can understand. It also provides a list of mail servers which
accept Emails for each domain name. Each domain name in DNS will nominate a set of name
servers to be authoritative for its DNS records.

• Then take some pc and give them a unique Ip address.
• Take a switch & connect every pc with the switch.
• Connect the switch with the server.
• Give an Ip address and DNS to the server
• Set the DNS information to the nodes.
• Now the resources on the website can be accessible to everyone if you give permission.
