Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The Domain Name System (DNS) translates human-friendly domain names (like www.example.com) into IP addresses (like 192.0.2.1) that computers use to identify each other on the network. It's essentially the phonebook of the Internet, allowing users to access websites using easy-to-remember domain names rather than having to remember numerical IP addresses.
