 # Name resolution for resources in Azure virtual networks
 
 Depending on how you use Azure to host IaaS, PaaS, and hybrid solutions, you might need to allow the virtual machines (VMs), and other resources deployed in a virtual network to communicate with each other. Although you can enable communication by using IP addresses, it is much simpler to use names that can be easily remembered, and do not change.
 
-When resources deployed in virtual networks need to resolve domain names to internal IP addresses, they can use one of three methods:
+When resources deployed in virtual networks need to resolve domain names to internal IP addresses, they can use one of four methods:

 * [Name resolution that uses your own DNS server](#name-resolution-that-uses-your-own-dns-server) (which might forward queries to the Azure-provided DNS servers)

 ## Azure-provided name resolution

 * The Azure DNS IP address is 168.63.129.16. This is a static IP address and will not change.
 
 ### Reverse DNS Considerations
+
 Reverse DNS is supported in all ARM based virtual networks. You can issue reverse DNS queries (PTR queries) to map IP addresses of virtual machines to FQDNs of virtual machines.
 * All PTR queries for IP addresses of virtual machines will return FQDNs of form \[vmname\].internal.cloudapp.net
 * Forward lookup on FQDNs of form \[vmname\].internal.cloudapp.net will resolve to IP address assigned to the virtual machine.

 ### VMs and role instances
 
 Your name resolution needs might go beyond the features provided by Azure. For example, you might need to use Microsoft Windows Server Active Directory domains, resolve DNS names between virtual networks. To cover these scenarios, Azure provides the ability for you to use your own DNS servers.
