DNS Server and DNS Resolver

DNS Server is looked into for resolving the DNS and the IP address and to forward the message to the particular DNS. In short, the DNS server acts as a database having the IP address and the Domain Names.

DNS client side is called as DNS resolver that is responsible for initating and sequencing the query so that the Domain Name gets mapped with the corresponding IP address. A DNS query may be either a non-recursive query or a recursive query.
