|
Definition
|
|
Term

Definition
|
|
Term
| HTTP has been in use on the Web since _____. |
|
Definition
|
|
Term

|
Definition
|
|
Term
| A(n) _____ is a combination of a Uniform Resource Locator (URL) and a Uniform Resource Name (URN). |
|
Definition
| Uniform Resource Indicator (URI) |

Term
| HTTP _____ are commands that the HTTP client issues to the HTTP server. |
|
Definition
|
|
Term
| The _____ command looks up domain names, indicates where they are registered, and identifies primary and secondary DNS servers for the DNS databse in which the entry resides. |
|
Definition
|
|
Term
| _____ was originally designed as a debugging tool to solicit random inout simply and easily without having to generate significant input. |
|
Definition
|
|
Term
| _____ is the necessary name-to-numbers correlation similar to the coupling between hostnames and IP addresses. |

Definition
|
|
Term
| A(n) _____ record stores domain name-to-IP address translation data. |
|
Definition
|
|
Term
| The _____ is distinguished from other name servers for a domain by its ability to always read its data from a zone file on disk when the DNS service starts up. |
|
Definition

|
Definition
|
|
Term
| True or False: A TCP/IP server is usually some application or service that encounters a domain name for which it needs an IP address. |
|
Definition
|
|

|
Definition
|
|
Term
| True or False: The reason some recursive name queries involve a root server is because the root servers keep all names in the entire DNS namespace close at hand. |
|
Definition
|
|
Term
| True or False: Supplying one or more DNS server addresses is yet another service that DHCP performs automatically for its clients as part of the DHCP server "options". |
|
Definition
|
|
Term
| Most DNS servers can store the results of previous name queries using a form of local data storage called _____. |
|
Definition
|
|
Term
