Frequently Asked Questions
- What is DNS Lookup?
- DNS Lookup converts a hostname (like www.example.com) into an IP address by querying the Domain Name System.
- How does DNS Lookup work?
- Resolvers contact recursive and authoritative DNS servers to resolve records (A/AAAA) for the given name and return the IPs.
- What is a Reverse DNS Lookup?
- Reverse DNS maps an IP address back to a hostname using PTR records; useful for diagnostics and email reputation checks.
- How to troubleshoot DNS Lookup failure?
- Check for typos in the domain name, verify DNS server settings, and ensure there are no network connectivity issues.
- What are DNS Forward and Reverse Lookup Zones?
- Forward zones map names to IP addresses, while reverse zones map IP addresses to names.
