We pick i.root-servers.net, one of the 13 root servers (1), and ask it about dns.hk and learn that hk is delegated to ten name servers (2), so we ask s.hkirc.net.hk where we learn that dns.hk is delegated to two name servers, including ns9.zoneedit.com (3), so we ask that one and get the following answer:
Dns.hk is a domain controlled by two domain name servers at zoneedit.com. Both are on different IP networks. Incoming mail for dns.hk is handled by two mail servers also at zoneedit.com. Both are on different IP networks.
