Configuring Domain Name Systems

Domain Name System (DNS) converts user-defined domain names into IP addresses. Each time a
domain name is assigned, the DNS service translates the name into a numeric IP address. For
example,
www.ipexample.com
is translated to 192.87.56.2. DNS servers maintain domain name
databases and their corresponding IP addresses.
The
Domain Naming System (DNS)
page contains fields for enabling and activating specific DNS
servers.
To open the
Domain Naming System (DNS)
page, click
