33.6 DNS Overview

DNS (Domain Name System) is for mapping a domain name to its corresponding IP address and vice versa. The DNS server is extremely important because without it, you must know the IP address of a machine before you can access it.

The following table identifies the values required for many of these commands. Other input values are discussed with the corresponding commands.
