4 DNS and History

 Domain Name System (DNS) is the phone book of internet where all domain names along
with their IP addresses are stored.
 DNS translates domain name into IP addresses.
 When internet was at early stages users could only establish connections between
computers by providing IP of computer they want to connect to.
 When more and more system came online this was managed in a single text file where all
IP and names were mapped. This was done by Network Information Center.
 Later the text file was hard to manage and concept of DNS came to action which mapped
all text names to IP addresses.
