==Overview==

The Internationalized domain name (IDN) can also be perceived as the label displayed in a software application, in an alphabet or language-specific script. The IDNs are stored in DNS as ASCII strings. The DNS performs look-up services to ensure the translation of user-friendly names to locate the Internet resources, and it is restricted to use [[ASCII]] characters as a limitation for acceptable domains. Based on these facts, the IDNs are a solution to ensure the translation names written by means of native-language scripts into ASCII text being compatible with [[DNS]].
