wwwmsn.com.

We pick i.root-servers.net, one of the 13 root servers (1), and ask it about wwwmsn.com and learn that com is delegated to 13 name servers (2), so we ask k.gtld-servers.net where we learn that wwwmsn.com is delegated to five name servers, including ns4.msft.net (3), so we ask that one and get the following answer:
Wwwmsn.com is a domain controlled by five domain name servers at msft.net having a total of ten IP numbers. Some of them are on the same IP network. Incoming mail for wwwmsn.com is handled by one mail server at microsoft.com having a total of eight IP numbers. Some of them are on the same IP network. Wwwmsn.com has one IP number (65.55.206.228), but the reverse is ?.
