IP Addresses vs. Domain Names
• IP Address [Identifier] – “Computer-friendly” – Unique number identifies computer on Internet – Used for routing
• DNS Name [Reference] – “People-Friendly” – Maps host name to unique IP address – Not used for routing
• IP addresses are mandatory for Internet Protocol communications, while domain naming facilitates communication and accessibility of the Internet to the end users
