[1] It is available with a graphical user interface as well as a command-line interface. [1] Its purpose is to find the fastest DNS server one could ...
The DNS server also features blocking domain names using block lists [23] and also supports using HTTP or SOCKS5, for transport of DNS requests over Tor network. [24] The DNS server supports running independently developed plugins that can be used to process and respond to DNS requests.
Google Public DNS is a Domain Name System (DNS) service offered to Internet users worldwide by Google. It functions as a recursive name server . Google Public DNS was announced on December 3, 2009, [ 1 ] in an effort described as "making the web faster and more secure."
A Canonical Name (CNAME) record is a type of resource record in the Domain Name System (DNS) that maps one domain name (an alias) to another (the canonical name). [1]This can prove convenient when running multiple services (like an FTP server and a web server, each running on different ports) from a single IP address.
This list of Internet top-level domains (TLD) contains top-level domains, which are those domains in the DNS root zone of the Domain Name System of the Internet.A list of the top-level domains by the Internet Assigned Numbers Authority (IANA) is maintained at the Root Zone Database. [1]
The 1.1.1.1 DNS service operates recursive name servers for public use at the twelve IP addresses listed below. [11] These addresses are mapped to the nearest operational server by anycast routing. [12] The DNS service is also available for Tor clients. [13] Users can set up the service by manually changing their DNS resolvers to the IP ...
Round-robin DNS is often used to load balance requests among a number of Web servers. For example, a company has one domain name and three identical copies of the same web site residing on three servers with three IP addresses. The DNS server will be set up so that domain name has multiple A records, one for each IP address.
