In plain English
The internet's address book: it turns a name like example.com into the number of the server that hosts it.

Like the internet's phone book, looking up a name to find the right address.
Why it matters
You edit DNS records to connect domains, set up email authentication, and verify sending domains for your GHL and funnel work.
In practice
You add a CNAME record pointing a client's subdomain to their GHL funnel.
