    I'm going to school for networking and I know what DNS is but it's very complex and just never really caught on for me. This video was done great and although I'm sure DNS is even more complex then what was showed in this video it did help clear some things up. Thank you for taking the time to make this amazing video.

    Thank you for the kind words! We are actually in the process of coming up with more content, however, the bulk of it will be based on DNS as that's our primary business. We apologize for the inconvenience, but hope you will enjoy our future offerings all the same!

    I didn't really take much in but that was cool.

    We are committed to making the understanding and managing of DNS easier for everyone, but that doesn't make the domain name system itself any less complex. Our aim here was to simplify the process as much as possible so that almost anyone could grasp it.
    Was there anything in particular you wanted more information on?

    Good question! The resolving name server is actually provided by your ISP unless you're using a third-party resolver. In essence, your operating system is contacting your ISP (resolving name server), which contacts the Root name server.

  • @mubarakahmad7358

    I easily understood this. Hope i can see this type of explanation for other concepts as well. So cool!

  • @DNSMadeEasyServices
    @DNSMadeEasyServices  11 ปีที่แล้ว +15

    Thank you! We're constantly trying to increase awareness and knowledge of DNS so that's good to hear. As for good books? If you're looking to learn more about DNS I'd recommend "DNS and BIND". Very comprehensive.

  • @DNSMadeEasyServices

  • @DNSMadeEasyServices
    @DNSMadeEasyServices  12 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    @opikech Great question! If you were viewing content on an intranet you would in fact bring up a web page using that sort of IP address. The reason we used it in our example was because we needed an IP address that was unroutable as we didn't want to run the risk of any viewers visiting a live IP address.

    Can you explain the difference between Registrar and Registry? Is DNS Made Easy a registrar or registry? So authoratative name servers belong to which one? It's little bit complicated for me. Thank You !

    I encourage whoever made this video to create a TH-cam channel with more of these videos with broader topics... It can be about any other thing, not just computer related topics. He's got the potential.

  • @DNSMadeEasyServices
    @DNSMadeEasyServices  12 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    @AutoPsychotic It's never displayed by default. Try going to a website and throwing the dot in at the end of the URL. You'll still get there.

  • @houndog415
    @houndog415 10 ปีที่แล้ว +158

    Very well done. Thank you for the tutorial. The humor was great. Entertaining.

  • @DNSMadeEasyServices
    @DNSMadeEasyServices  12 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    @AutoPsychotic Sorry if that's the impression you got. What we are saying is that the end dot is part of the URL, and that if you type it in at the end you will still get to where you are going. When we said "Go ahead, try it out. We'll wait." That's what we meant. We never meant to infer that the dot would appear.

  • @DNSMadeEasyServices

  • @DNSMadeEasyServices
    @DNSMadeEasyServices  12 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    @1111Davo1 Good point. Since our run time was already pushing past the 6 minute mark we elected to not go into too much extra detail (see the 30 second mark), regarding TLDs, who's responsible for the resolving name servers, etc...
    We are currently working on a companion article to accompany the video however, and that will include more info about the various TLDs, amongst other things.

  • @DNSMadeEasyServices
    @DNSMadeEasyServices  10 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    The resolving name server queries the root name servers which provide the TLD name servers as their response. Hope that helps!

    nice vid..
    any reason you took a local ip-adress as an example?? i mean if im not totally wrong youd never get a 192.x.x.x ip adress from a webpage right? isnt that reserved for local networks..

  • @DNSMadeEasyServices
    @DNSMadeEasyServices  10 ปีที่แล้ว +9

    Sure thing! DNS Made Easy is actually neither of those. A Registrar is a company that sells domain names, while the Registry is the organization in charge of setting the rules for and managing a top level domain. They also create domain name extensions. DNS Made Easy is an authoritative DNS provider. We basically direct traffic to your site by looking up the IP address of the domain name you type into your browser.

    I feel smarter already. So let me get this straight I perform a search in the navigation bar and it goes through 4 different servers before I get a response, amazing.
    I am wondering though what legislation you might be speaking of that would disrupt this process. I guess I'll have to visit your sit to find out

  • @AutoPsychotic
    @AutoPsychotic 12 ปีที่แล้ว

    @DNSMadeEasy True, and understood, but the implication in the video was that the last dot would appear when you go to a website, at the part where you said "Go ahead, try it out. We'll wait."

    192.x.x.x is a private IP range

    • @DNSMadeEasyServices
      @DNSMadeEasyServices  8 ปีที่แล้ว +68

      +BZ Yes, privae IP addresses are in DNS as well. We had to use private IP addresses since we didn't want people to start pinging and sending requests to public IP addresses and then get accused of sending people to certain IPs (yes, it has happened before).

    • @stefanolombardo7585
