I have read up on DNS which basically means that it translate my domain name into an ip address. So just to confirm when i do a nslookup on cmd, i get e.g
On my PC (NOT CONNECTED TO INTERNET, LOCAL NETWORK):
Default server: ps4.example.org --> this is my fully qualified DN?
Address: 1.2.3.4 --> this is my preferred DNS ?
My main objective is to create a DNS to direct traffic between 2 PCs. I do not understand how MX and A record works even after reading up. And how do i check it?
Update: Just to clarify, i have an internal IP add and a DNS server(preferred DNS in the settings). What is this DNS server referring to?
So what does it mean if i am checking for the mx record of google.com? – ps4one – 2014-09-11T03:34:00.180
For beginners, you might want to think that domain and IP are just names that identify a particular server. When you check the MX, it gives you a bunch of domain and IP. This just tells you what are the servers that manage Mail Exchange for anyone@google.com email addresses. – Jake – 2014-09-11T03:36:39.253
