outside the subnet and serves as connection between the current subnet and the outside world.

DHCP – Refers to the Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol used by a host to obtain all necessary configuration information including IP addresses.

DLL – Dynamic Linked Library, a development tool.

DNS – ‘Domain Name System’, the online distributed database system being used to map human-readable machine names into IP addresses. DNS servers throughout the Internet implement a hierarchical namespace allowing sites the freedom in assigning machine names and addresses. DNS also supports separate mappings between mail destinations and IP addresses.

Domain – In general, a domain is an area of control or a sphere of knowledge. In computing and telecommunication in general, a domain is a sphere of knowledge identified by a name.

Typically, the knowledge is a collection of facts about some program entities or a number of network points or addresses. On the Internet, a domain consists of a set of network addresses. This domain is organized in levels. The top level identifies geographic or purpose commonality (for example, the nation that the domain covers or a category such as "commercial"). The second level identifies a unique place within the top level domain and is, in fact, equivalent to a unique address on the Internet (an IP address). Lower levels of domain may also be used.

Strictly speaking, in the Internet's domain name system (DNS), a domain is a name with which name server records are associated that describe subdomains or host. For example, "optibase.com" could be a domain with records for "www.optibase.com" and "www1.optibase.com," and so forth. In Windows NT and Windows 2000, a domain is a set of network resources (applications, printers, and so forth) for a group of users. The user only needs to log on to the domain to gain access to the resources, which may be located on a number of different servers in the network.
