An Internet service that translates domain names like www.nokia.com into IP addresses like 192.100.124.195. Domain names are easier to remember but this translation is needed because the Internet is based on IP addresses. Domain name and Host name The terms "domain name" and "host name" are sometimes, slightly inaccurately, used as synonyms. In a full domain name, e.g. www.forum.nokia.com, the first part of the name is the name of the host, and the following parts are names of domains to which the host belongs. Each host name corresponds to a certain IP address. Host names are used because they are easier to remember than IP addresses. Glossary 301
