Do you ever wonder what is stored in your computer's local DNS cache? When troubleshooting network issues, it can be useful to check what is in the computer's DNS cache. The DNS system is the internet system that translates domain names like "michaelburns.net" into the IP address that your computer needs to connect to the server. When your computer needs such a translation, it contacts DNS servers on the internet (usually the ones belonging to your ISP, or contacts your router which acts as a DNS proxy) to get the IP address for a given domain name. To save time for servers/websites that your computer visits often, the DNS cache stores the translations so that it does not have to contact the DNS server every time.
