Internet Protocols Questions
A network DNS server is responsible for storing and managing the DNS records for a specific network or domain. It receives DNS queries from clients and provides them with the corresponding IP addresses or other DNS information.
On the other hand, a DNS resolver is a client-side software or service that sends DNS queries to DNS servers to resolve domain names into IP addresses. It acts as an intermediary between the client and the DNS server, forwarding the query and receiving the response. The resolver is typically provided by the Internet Service Provider (ISP) or configured on the client's device.
