A DNS name server is a server that stores the DNS records for a domain name, such as address ( A ) records, name server ( NS ) records, and mail exchanger ( MX ) records ( see also list of DNS record types ); a DNS name server responds with answers to queries against its database.

The domain name space consists of a tree of domain names.

Each node or leaf in the tree has zero or more resource records, which hold information associated with the domain name.

A domain name consists of one or more parts, technically called labels, that are conventionally concatenated, and delimited by dots, such as < tt > example. com </ tt >.

* The right-most label conveys the top-level domain ; for example, the domain name < tt > www. example. com </ tt > belongs to the top-level domain < tt > com </ tt >.

The domain registry in turn configures the authoritative name servers for that top level domain with delegations for each server for the zone.

In addition to ICANN, each top-level domain ( TLD ) is maintained and serviced technically by an administrative organization operating a registry.

The registry receives registration information from each domain name registrar authorized to assign names in the corresponding TLD and publishes the information using a special service, the whois protocol.

In this method of management, the registry only manages the domain name database and the relationship with the registrars.

Management functions delegated to the administrative contacts may include management of all business information, such as name of record, postal address, and contact information of the official registrant of the domain and the obligation to conform to the requirements of the domain registry in order to retain the right to use a domain name.

The functions of a technical contact include assuring conformance of the configurations of the domain name with the requirements of the domain registry, maintaining the domain zone records, and providing continuous functionality of the name servers ( that leads to the accessibility of the domain name ).
