DNS sever role

Hi All,

I found a post and its reply about DNS server configuration.

I want to know about DNS server role.

Why we create it ?

What it does ?

We cannot remember numeric IP addresses. so domain names came into usage.
DNS is a database to convert the domain name into corresponding IP address.
