00:01 Hello students, the answer is yes, yes a computer can have the two dns names that fall in the different top level domain.
00:14 A computer can have can have the two dns names that fall that fall in the different in the different top level domain top level domains.
00:48 When this scenario is known as a multi naming or a multi homing.
00:53 So multi naming it is named as the multi naming or or the multi homing multi homing.
01:12 So where the multi naming allows the single computer to be identified and accessed using the multi multiple domain name, each belonging to the different top level domain.
01:24 For an example, for an consider the company named as an as an example, example, cop.
01:36 So that operates internationally.
01:39 So they can have the web server that that provides the content in a multiple language and the region to cater to the global audience.
