 ## Name resolution that Azure provides
+
 Along with resolution of public DNS names, Azure provides internal name resolution for virtual machines and role instances that are in the same virtual network. In virtual networks that are based on Azure Resource Manager, the DNS suffix is consistent across the virtual network; the FQDN is not needed. DNS names can be assigned to both network interface cards (NICs) and virtual machines. Although the name resolution that Azure provides does not require any configuration, it is not the appropriate choice for all deployment scenarios, as seen on the preceding table.

 **Client-side caching:**
 
 Some DNS queries are not sent across the network. Client-side caching helps reduce latency and improve resilience to network inconsistencies by resolving recurring DNS queries from a local cache. DNS records contain a Time-To-Live (TTL), which enables the cache to store the record for as long as possible without impacting record freshness. As a result, client-side caching is suitable for most situations.

 ## Name resolution using your own DNS server
+
 Your name resolution needs may go beyond the features that Azure provides. For example, you might require DNS resolution between virtual networks. To cover this scenario, you can use your own DNS servers.  
 
 DNS servers within a virtual network can forward DNS queries to recursive resolvers of Azure to resolve hostnames that are in the same virtual network. For example, a DNS server that runs in Azure can respond to DNS queries for its own DNS zone files and forward all other queries to Azure. This functionality enables virtual machines to see both your entries in your zone files and hostnames that Azure provides (via the forwarder). Access to the recursive resolvers of Azure is provided via the virtual IP 168.63.129.16.
