Domain Name (English: Domain Name), also known as domain, is the name of a computer or computer group on the Internet composed of a string of names separated by dots, which is used to locate the computer during data transmission (sometimes also refers to geographic location). Because IP addresses are inconvenient to remember and cannot display the name and nature of the address organization, people have designed domain names, and used the Domain Name System (DNS, Domain Name System) to map domain names and IP addresses to each other, making people more Easily access the Internet without having to remember IP address strings that can be directly read by machines.
Although IP addresses can uniquely mark computers on the network, IP addresses are a long string of numbers, which is not intuitive, and is very inconvenient for users to remember, so people have invented another set of character-based address schemes, the so-called domain name address. .

IP is located in the network layer of the TCP/IP model (equivalent to the network layer of the OSI model), it can provide information of various protocols to the transport layer, such as TCP, UDP, etc.; IP packets can be placed in the link layer, It is transmitted through various technologies such as Ethernet, Token Ring network, etc.
