The root server is the core component of DNS, which maintains the authoritative database of top-level domain names and is used to resolve domain names into IP addresses. The root server system consists of 13 servers distributed around the world, named with letters A to M and operated by different organizations. It is managed by ICANN to ensure the stability of the Internet and prevent domain name spoofing.
