Which network system translates human-readable domain names (like www.google.com) into numerical IP addresses?
ANAT (Network Address Translation)
BARP (Address Resolution Protocol)
CDHCP
DDNS (Domain Name System)
Explanation
DNS (Domain Name System) functions as the ‘phonebook of the Internet’. It translates human-friendly domain names (e.g., google.com) into machine-readable IP addresses (e.g., 142.250.190.46) so browsers can locate web resources (operates on port 53).
