MCSA/MCSE Exam 70-291 Exam Cram: Managing Name Resolution

Overview Each machine on a computer network is assigned a unique network address. Computers communicate with each other across networks by connecting to these network addresses. These numbers, also known as Internet Protocol (IP) addresses, consist of four groups of numbers, or octets, and can be difficult for people to remember. To solve this dilemma, a system was developed whereby people can use "Friendly" names that are then translated automatically into IP addresses that computers use to locate each other and to communicate. The software that translates these names to network addresses is called the Domain Name System (DNS). This paper introduces the Windows Server 2003 implementation of DNS.
