How to configure DNS server step by step?

It is very important to choose a DNS provider, as most of the internet is based on IP address instead of host name. To resolve host names, our computers rely on DNS servers to perform recursive name lookup or recursive resolving of DNS queries. These days more and more companies use Google Cloud platform, Google provides free services which include one zone for all your domain. One of such zones is Domains, you can use it for free. Here is an outline of setting up a zone.

Google Cloud DNS is a fully managed DNS system. You must be logged in with a Google account to use it.

Get an ID. Create a Google account if you don't have one yet. It has nothing to do with hosting companies, but everything to do with your internet service.

Log in to Google Console. On the left sidebar there should be Google Apps, click it, and then the blue Create new Project button. Google will help you understand the differences between projects and domains and ask you to pick one. Create a project, give it a name, accept the terms, and click Create Project. Click Cloud DNS on the left sidebar. On the bottom menu click Create DNS". Put a Name. Use example.com for now, and select one or more subdomains, for example www. When you create the zone, you can add them later. The second word you type here is a subdomain of your own domain, eg: google.com or gmail.com, it is not your domain, but a domain used for testing if the DNS servers will work correctly.

Put TTL. You can find out it on the DNS properties of any of the resources that are defined in your Zone using nslookup from the command line. For instance, to find the TTL of www.com: nslookup -p www.com

Nslookup www.com Server: 209.116.69.130 Address 2: 209.

How to set DNS in Linux terminal?

I am using Linux terminal, and I have a problem of setting DNS to my router.

I have the following problems.

When I try to ping www.google.com, it takes me to another router, instead of the one that I want to reach.

If I use ipconfig command, I see that it is 192.168.1 instead of 192.5.

If I use nslookup command, it says address not found. I think the problem is related to the IP address that I use. Is there any way to change it without losing any settings? Open a new terminal and run these commands : sudo gedit /etc/resolv. Save the file, press Y and you're done.
