A DNS (Domain Name System) server is responsible for resolving domain names into IP addresses. When you type in a domain name into your web browser, the browser contacts the DNS server to find the IP address associated with the domain name. The DNS server then looks up the domain name in its database and returns the associated IP address back to the browser. The browser then makes a connection to the web server using the IP address.
