Resolution Protocols

Resolution protocols are standardized procedures used in network communication to determine how devices find the IP address associated with a domain name or other resource. Think of it like looking up a contact’s phone number: you input a name, and the protocol helps find the correct address. Examples include DNS (Domain Name System), which translates website names into IP addresses, ensuring devices connect to the right servers. These protocols ensure reliable, efficient, and consistent connection setup across the internet and other networks.
