We pick f.root-servers.net, one of the 13 root servers (1), and ask it about cuhk.edu.hk and learn that hk is delegated to ten name servers (2), so we ask b.hkirc.net.hk where we learn that cuhk.edu.hk is delegated to four name servers, including anyns.cuhk.edu.hk (3), so we ask that one and get the following answer:
Cuhk.edu.hk is a domain controlled by four domain name servers at cuhk.edu.hk themselves having a total of eight IP numbers. Some of them are on the same IP network. Incoming mail for cuhk.edu.hk is handled by four mail servers also at cuhk.edu.hk. All four of them are on the same IP network.
