I think it's B) False. DNS can do more than that.

I thought DNS was mainly for resolving names to IPs, but I could be mixing it up with something else. This is tricky!

I’m not entirely sure, but I feel like I read something about DNS being able to do both. Maybe I should go with B?

I remember a practice question that mentioned DNS does more than just resolve to host names. So I’m leaning towards B.

I think DNS can actually resolve both ways, right? Like from host names to IP addresses too?
