The Domain Name System (DNS) uses servers distributed across the Internet to provide domain name/IP address translation and electronic mail routing information.
The Dns class provides forward lookup (resolve a name to an address), reverse lookup (resolve an address to a name), and MX lookup (resolve an email address to the mail server address responsible for that mail domain). Synchronous and asynchronous use is fully supported.
The following example demonstrates using the Dns control to resolve a domain name.
[Visual Basic]
Private Sub ResolveTest()
Dns1.Servers.Add("206.64.128.5") 'Adds this server to list of DNS servers
Dns1.RotateServers = True 'Will always try next server in Dns1.Servers
Dns1.Retries = 2 'On failures, try an additional two times
Dns1.RetryInterval = 0 'Do not wait between retries
Dim result As System.Net.IPHostEntry = Dns1.GetHost("www.dart.com")
DisplayResult(result)
End Sub
Private Sub DisplayResult(ByVal result As System.Net.IPHostEntry)
' Display host name
Debug.WriteLine("Host name: " + result.HostName)
' Display addresses, if any
Dim add As System.Net.IPAddress
For Each add In result.AddressList
Debug.WriteLine("Address: " + add.ToString())
Next
' Display aliases, if any
Dim s As String
For Each s In result.Aliases
Debug.WriteLine("Aliases: " + s)
Next
End Sub
[C#]
private void ResolveTest()
{
dns1.Servers.Add("206.64.128.5"); 'Adds this server to list of
DNS servers
dns1.RotateServers = true; 'Will always try next server in Dns1.Servers
dns1.Retries = 2; 'On failures, try an additional two times
dns1.RetryInterval = 0; 'Do not wait between retries
System.Net.IPHostEntry result = dns1.GetHost("www.dart.com");
DisplayResult(result);
}
private void DisplayResult(System.Net.IPHostEntry result)
{
// Display host name
Debug.WriteLine("Host name: " + result.HostName);
// Display addresses, if any
foreach(System.Net.IPAddress add in result.AddressList)
Debug.WriteLine("Address: " + add.ToString());
// Display aliases, if any
foreach(string s in result.Aliases)
Debug.WriteLine("Aliases: " + s);
