Why do we need the Domain Name System (DNS)? Given the domain name www.flamingflamingos.eu, what is the top level domain in this

name? How many different nameservers need to be visited in order to find the location of www.flamingflamingos.eu, including the ROOT server? How long does this whole process take? Once the location is acquired (IP address 88.151.243.8) what does your computer do with that information?

Explanation:

We need the DNS(Domain Name System) because it connects to the webpage by using an Internet Protocol address and also used to convert the domain name into IP address on the internet.

Top-level domain is .eu

The top-level domain is also known as TLD, and it is the last part of the domain name.

There are 4 different nameservers.

It depends on the internet connection.

When we search for the valid IP address then it will connect us to that webpage whose IP address we search.
