DNS is an application services commonly used on the Internet such as web browser or e-mail that translates a domain name to IP address.
How DNS Works :
- Map the DNS name into the computer IP address
- Client DNS called resolvers and DNS server is called with name servers.
Principles of DNS

- Resolvers send queries to name servers
- Mencek name server to a local database, or to contact other name servers, if found to be notified if resolvers will not send failure message
- Resolvers contact the host dituju using the IP address given name server
- Cachenya view the content of their own (when the question was asked and the answer stored in the own cache).
- Ask / query to the local dns server and interpret the results.

Domain Name System (DNS)
DNS Query Mechanism
Classification Domain Name
Organization associated with the DNS


- History and setting the IP host name tersentral regulated by IANA (Internet Assigned Numbers Authority)
- Dimotori by Jon Postel
- List of tables are downloaded on a regular basis
Domain Name System (DNS)
- "Table" which is managed terdistribusi
- An administrator to manage a particular domain.
- Domain can have a sub domain
- DNS Inventor: Paul Mockapetris
- Http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paul_Mockapetris
- Data in the DNS is not just number but also IP: MX record, type of computer, OS, location, etc..
DNS Query Mechanism
- Query DNS the same as the usual postal address
- To find the address below, the address read from the back
- Query to "www.paume.itb.ac.id" done with the sequence
- . Ps
- . Ac.id
- . Itb.ac.id
- . Paume.itb.ac.id
- Www.paume.itb.ac.id = 167.205.21.82
- It's cache to speed up the process
Classification Domain Name

DNS has several advantages, such as:
Easy, DNS is easy because the user no longer direpotkan to remember the IP address a computer, just the host name (Computer name).
Consistent, a computer IP address can change, but the host name should not be changed.
Simple, user only uses one name for the domain name in both the Internet and the Intranet, although there are a lot of mirror servers that are used.
