- 1a - Describe, step by step, what happens when I type
www.example.com
into my browser and try to go to the page?
- Your computer's browser looks up the IP address for www.example.com. If it's not in it's internal DNS it will look to local, or your ISP, or the Backbone for the IP address. It will keep digging until it finds it. Finally, the server you are seeking will return a response to your request and send back data. When it sends a response it will trigger your client to make multiple relevant requests to ask the server to send back the packets it needs to complete the final resulting page on your client browser.
