The DNS is essentially the phone book for the Web. Rather than translating “John Doe” into a phone number, the DNS instead translates a URL (www.google.com) into an IP address, taking you to the site you’re looking for.
DNS kimsingi ni kitabu cha simu cha Wavuti. Badala ya kutafsiri "John Doe" kwenda kwenye nambari ya simu, badala yake DNS inatafsiri URL, www.google.com, kwenda kwenye anwani ya IP, na inakupeleka kwenye tovuti unayoitafuta.
