a domain name, a DNS service translate s the name into the corresponding IP 
address. For example, the domain name  www.example.com might translate to 
198.105.232.4. The DNS system has its own network. If one DNS server does 
not know how to translate a particular domain name, it asks another one, and so 
on, until the correct IP address is returned.
