Answer:

DNS

Explanation:

The DNS, also known as the Domain Name System is regarded as the internet's phonebook. It is through this medium that information is access online using domain names such as www.microsoft.com. While web browsers can communicate via IP addresses, the Domain Name System (DNS) translate the www.microsoft.com to the IP addresses in order to help the browsers load the resources on the internet. In a case where an error message is received, then the DNS network setting will show you the address of the server to resolve the issue.
