A DNS server is used to translate a domain name into an IP address or vise versa. For example, when you type dnsknowledge.com in your web browser, an authoritative dns server translate a domain name such as dnsknowledge.com into an IP address such as 67.228.49.226. However, if you try dnsknowledgefoobarexamplefackdomain.com, you will get an error indicating non existing domain name.

OR
host abcquq12examfooltest.com
