Which of the following describes the difference between a DNS server and a DHCP server?

DNS stands for Domain Name System, and it is a network service that translates human-readable names (such as www.google.com) into numerical IP addresses (such as 172.217.14.206) that identify the location of the web servers on the internet. DNS also allows reverse lookup, which means finding the domain name associated with a given IP address. DNS servers are responsible for maintaining a database of domain names and their corresponding IP addresses, and responding to queries from clients who want to resolve a name to an address or vice versa12.

DHCP stands for Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol, and it is a network service that automatically assigns IP addresses and other network configuration parameters (such as subnet mask, default gateway, DNS server, etc.) to devices that join a network. DHCP servers are responsible for managing a pool of IP addresses and leasing them to clients for a specified duration. DHCP servers also renew or release the IP addresses when the lease expires or the client disconnects from the network34.

The difference between DNS and DHCP is that DNS is used for address translation, which means converting domain names to IP addresses and vice versa, while DHCP is used for IP address assignment, which means providing IP addresses and other network settings to devices that need to communicate on a network.
