Abstract

The present invention relates to a virtual domain that extends an internet domain system by using a virtual domain conversion program installed on a server. More specifically, when a virtual domain is input to a virtual domain conversion program, a web having a domain name of an ICANN method is input from a server. It's about a virtual domain system that links to a site. According to the present invention, a virtual domain is used in place of an Internet domain system used by ICANN by using a virtual domain conversion program installed in a client or server, and the input virtual domain is converted from a client or server into an ICANN type domain. A virtual domain system that provides a link is provided.

Description

A virtual domain system

The present invention relates to a domain system, which is a system that connects a virtual domain database to a conventional domain database when a client inputs a virtual domain, and provides a more accurate and symbolic domain and has a variety of domain systems. It is to provide.

The computer usage environment is gradually increasing. In particular, the use of the Internet is becoming popular. 1 is a block diagram schematically illustrating a system in an internet using environment. The computer user runs a web browser 14 in the client computer 10 to access the Internet. A web browser includes a program for performing communication between a client computer and an internet server. In most Internet communications, a computer user sends a request 16 from a client computer 10 to a server computer 18 connected to an internet communications network. The user request information 16 indicates the web site where the server to which the user is connected is located. In response to the user request signal 16, the server 18 transmits web page 20 information. In most cases, the web page 20 information includes hypertext markup language (HTML) and hyperlink information of other websites. The web browser 14 includes software for displaying the web page 20 on the client computer 10 so that a user can view the web page 20.

In this case, the address of the service providing server to which the client is to move is inputted with a domain address in an address window or a URL (Uniform Resource Locator window) as shown in FIG. A web browser such as an Internet Explorer program has a box 24 for inputting an address in a predetermined portion of the user area 26 on the window screen 22.

In the case of Internet web sites, domain promotion is the most important, and companies use domains selected by consumer customers that are actively formed according to rational and creative values. Therefore, according to the flow of the Internet market, companies grasp domain trends, evaluate their actual values, and use them as corporate brands that characterize their characteristics.

Despite the importance of the Internet domain, in the ICANN (Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers) domain that assigns and manages the conventional Internet address space, it can be used as org, net, com. It is a two-letter alphabet that represents the country only for nationals such as, gov, mil, int, kr, and jp.

If the ICANN-type domain system has the same three-level domain name that can be arbitrarily specified, it can not only display the characteristics of the Internet web site but is also inaccurate when searching. there was.

In addition, since the number of domain systems of the ICANN method is limited in number, domain disputes between countries or companies frequently occur because domains are not provided smoothly.

An object of the present invention is to provide a more efficient virtual domain system by providing a system using a virtual domain name that provides a more accurate and symbolic domain name to Internet users.

Another object of the present invention is to provide a domain search program that enables accurate and effective search in searching Internet web sites or materials using the new domain system.

In the virtual domain system of the present invention for achieving the above object, the virtual domain system uses a virtual domain on behalf of an Internet domain system used by ICANN by using a virtual domain conversion program installed on a client or server. It is to implement the basic technical idea of the present invention in that the domain has components that convert and link the domain to the ICANN type domain in the client or server.

The Internet virtual domain system according to the present invention comprises an application step of receiving English domain application information from a client who wants a virtual domain, and a conversion step of converting the applied virtual domain into an ICANN type domain and corresponding one-to-one. It is characterized by.

Another feature of the Internet virtual domain system according to the present invention includes the steps of receiving English domain application information from a client who wants a virtual domain, converting the applied virtual domain into an ICANN-type domain and corresponding one-to-one, and a client computer. Receiving domain search request information from the server and searching the domain information using a database storing the virtual domain information; providing the information retrieved by the search step to the URL search window of the client; And receiving information and converting the selected virtual domain into an ICANN-type domain, and moving to the home page of the converted ICANN-type domain.

5 is an exemplary view of a result of searching by a virtual domain name using the system according to the present invention;

6 is an exemplary view of a result of searching by the top virtual domain name using the system according to the present invention.

Hereinafter, an Internet domain system according to the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. 1 is a flow chart showing the progress of the Internet domain system according to the present invention.

The client who wants the virtual domain name transmits a document of a predetermined form to apply for the desired English domain name to the service providing server. The application step is to install a virtual domain conversion program on the client or server and to apply for a virtual domain name that characterizes the web site desired by the user through the virtual domain conversion program installed on the client or server. For example, for the Korean administration, korea; The US administration can use a single form of virtual domain name that ends in step 1 without the need for another domain, such as america.

It can also be used in words, abbreviations, or plural forms that represent your industry. For example, banks for banks, news for newspapers, foods for food products, shops for shops or shopping malls, car or auto for cars, air for ships, ships for ships, Train related market, market related market, video related video, telecom related telecom, electronics related electron, LCD related LCD, thin film related Tft for thin film liquid crystal, soi for dielectric depositing on silicon, phone for phone, mobilephone for cordless phone, commerce for commerce, garden for park park, flower, flower, semicom, semiconductor, furniture If it is related to furniture, clothing, fashion, electric industry, electric, movie, film or film, temple, film, jewelry, jewel, MP3 related to mp3, firm related to firm, firm related to store or shop store, travel related to tour or travel, book or bookstore book, credit card or credit card or stock Stock, finance related finance, insurance related insurance, perfume related perfume, cosmetic related cosmetic, tool related tool, mechanical related mechanic or machine, restaurant Related to dining or restaurant, church if church, internet related web, art related Art, sports related to sports, sex related to sex, rec related to rest, info related to info, college related, uni or college, school used to school, chemical company used to make, In the case of a research institute or association, inst, power in connection with a power company, energy in relation to energy, environ or environment in relation to the environment, water in relation to water or water, water in relation to oil or oil, virtual When it comes to the world, when it is related to cyber, when it is related to stars, when it is related to space, when it is related to cosmos or universe, when it is related to moon tv, music related music, art related pictures or fineart, sound related sound, voice Voice related, construction related to architecture or architecture, hospital related to clinic or hospital, pet related to pet, fish related to fish, sea related to sea or marine, livestock related cattle, hall if it is related to the hall, vote if it is a vote, group if it is a group or a large company, org, net, com, edu, gov, mil, int and kr, jp used in the existing ICANN-based domain system. It is also possible to use a two-digit alphabetic character representing each country in the virtual domain system of the present invention. If you link the domain entered in the virtual domain conversion program from the server to the ICANN type domain or convert each alphabet used in the domain to three digits and send it to the server, the server links the ICANN type internet domain to the Internet. This is because it allows the user to view the website. If the user does not register the ICANN type domain at the time of applying for the domain, the second or more ICANN type domain that characterizes the applicant's website is arbitrarily registered and linked to the corresponding web site.

Here, the linking method is as described above, by linking the domain input in the virtual domain conversion program to the ICANN-type domain registered at the server arbitrarily or by converting each alphabet used in the domain to three digits and transmitting it to the server. At this time, the server links to the ICANN-type domain registered at random. As such, it is preferable that the top-level domain of the application step uses at least one or more letters characterizing the web site or to leave blank, and the virtual domain and the ICANN method domain can be applied for registration at the same address. S1 process)

The virtual domain name included in the application information transmitted from the client computer through the communication means and the ICANN method domain are mapped one-to-one (1: 1) into a database. For example, if the ICANN domain uses a web site whose http://www.earth123.com IP address is 295.17.357.85, and then applies for a virtual domain called http://www.earth.star, the virtual domain conversion program You can also link http://www.earth.star directly to ICANN's domain IP address 295.17.357.85. In this way, when linking via an IP address, each of the alphabets used in the domain can be converted into a number and linked. That is, the letters a are 011, b is 012, c is 013, and numbers are assigned from 011 to 036 in this manner. In this case, 001 to 010 are not used to avoid collision with numbers, and the first three digits start with "0" to distinguish alphabets. In the virtual domain conversion program, the alphabet used for http://www.earth.star is converted to a number such as the letter e for the number 015, the a for the number 011, and the r for the number 028. It will link to the ICANN-registered domain registered at the city and navigate to the web site. To set up a virtual domain, you need a name server. The name server plays a one-to-one (1: 1) correspondence with IP addresses like 111.111.111.111 to domain addresses like www.daum.co.kr. Therefore, when not using a name server, only the IP address can be used to connect to the desired server. However, using a name server allows you to connect to the desired server by domain instead of a complex and difficult-to-remember IP address. The same files are included: /etc/resolv.conf/etc/host.conf/etc/hosts/etc/named.conf/etc/named.boot/var/named/domain.zone/var/named/domain.rev The existing contents of the named.conf file are as follows: // generated by named-bootconf.ploptionsdirectory "/ var / named"; / ** If there is a firewall between you and nameservers you want * to talk to, you might need to uncomment the query-source * directive below. Previous versions of BIND always asked * questions using port 53, but BIND 8.1 uses an unprivileged * port by default. * /// query-source address * port 53 ;; //// a caching only nameserver config // Set the virtual domain by editing the contents of the .conf file using the vi editor, an editor for Unix or Linux. 1) The subdomain (samsung), subclass (such as "samsung.car.shop") The process of registering in the named.conf file is described as an example of a case consisting of a car and a major category (in the following description, the case of adopting Windows as an OS and explorer as a browser) is described. First, as shown in Fig. 4a, press the [Start] button at the bottom of the window and select the [Run] menu. After that, write telnet in the address window and enter the name server IP address and press [OK] button to connect. Then, the message "login:" will appear, as shown in Figure 4c. Enter the connection ID here and hit enter. You should see the phrase "Pssswd:", which means you have to enter a password. Enter the password and press Enter to connect and the prompt is [root@wave21c.com]. At this time, if "[root@wave21c.com] vi named.conf" command is used, the contents of the named.conf will be displayed on the screen. Use the arrow keys to move the cursor down so that the zone "car.shop" type master; file "temp / car.shop"; Modify the named.conf file as follows: // generated by named-bootconf.ploptionsdirectory "/ var / named"; / ** If there is a firewall between you and nameservers you want * to talk to, you might need to uncomment the query-source * directive below. Previous versions of BIND always asked * questions using port 53, but BIND 8.1 uses an unprivileged * port by default. * /// query-source address * port 53 ;; //// a caching only nameserver config // zone "car .shop " type master; file "temp / car.shop"; Add the virtual domain's needs to the bottom of the named.conf file as shown above, which means that if you see the address (xxx) .car.shop, you should refer to the document "car.shop" in the temp directory. Next, create a file called car.shop in the temp directory. To do this, use the vi editor, which is the editor for Unix or Linux. If you connect to a name server in the same way as above, you will get [root@wave21c.com]. Create a temp directory and create a car.shop file using the vi editor-To create a temp directory, type the following on the screen: [root@wave21c.com] mkdir temp After the tmep directory is created, enter car . To create a shop file, enter: [root@wave21c.com] vi car.shop At this time, when the screen shown in FIG. 4D appears, press the English letter “i” (input command) and write the following: @ IN SOA localhost . root.localhost. ( 1999052500 ; Serial28800; Refresh14400; Retry3600000; Expire86400); MinimumIN NS localhost. samsung IN A 243.432.53.1 prime IN A 123.432.12.43 I gave the virtual domains samsung and prime to the file car.shop and put them in the IP address to connect them. You should also increase the number of "Serial" (second line: 1999052500; Serial ) by the number of lists . For example: @ IN SOA localhost. root.localhost. ( 1999052500 ; Serial28800; Refresh14400; Retry3600000; Expire86400); MinimumIN NS localhost. samsung IN A 243.432.53.1 prime IN A 123.432.12.43 Add a virtual domain (sinjong) to the car.shop file @ IN SOA localhost. root.localhost. ( 1999052501 ; Serial28800; Refresh14400; Retry3600000; Expire86400); MinimumIN NS localhost. samsung IN A 243.432.53.1 prime IN A 123.432.12.43 sinjong IN A 123.483.384.7 The number of serials should be increased by one (1999052500-> 1999052501). After entering all the information in the file, press the Esc key, press ":" (Shift +;) in the middle right of the keyboard, press the letter "w" (Save) and press the letter "q" (quit: Exit). .2) If the requested virtual domain name consists of a daum and a mail, such as "daum.mail": This process is performed by the same process as the method of registering the virtual domains of the small, medium, and major categories mentioned above (eg samsung.car.shop) in the named.conf file. Connect to the server via telnet and modify the named.conf file using viEditor. At this time, the modified matters are as follows. zone "mail" type master; file "temp / mail"; In other words, a domain containing the word "mail", such as "daum.mail, kebi.mail, lycos.mail", means to refer to the mail document in the temp directory. Next, create a mail file in the temp directory. Since you have already created the temp directory above, go to the temp directory and create a mail file. [Root@wave21c.com] cd temp This will change [root@wave21c.com] to [root@wave21c.temp]. [ root@wave21c.temp] vi mail is also shown in the screen like 4e, press the letter "i" (enter) and write the following: @ IN SOA localhost. root.localhost. (2000102403; Serial28800; Refresh14400; Retry3600000; Expire86400); MinimumIN NS localhost. daum IN A 211.111.78.0 kebi IN A 478.382.382.98 lycos IN A 123.433.384.12 After writing the above information, press the Esc key and the ":" (Shift +;) key in the middle right of the keyboard. Then write the letter "w" (Save) and press the Enter key to save. Write the letter "q" (exit) again and press Enter. As mentioned earlier, the serial number must be increased by the number of virtual domain registrations. 3) Next, when registering a large-class virtual domain in the named.conf file as "samsung", as in 1) and 2) described above, Connect to the name server using telnet and modify the contents of the named.conf file. At this time, the modified part is as follows. zone "samsung" type master; file "temp / samsung"; Next, to make a samsung file in the temp directory, go to the temp directory and run the vi editor to create a samsung file. [Root@wave21c.com] cd temp [root@wave21c.temp] Press "i" (input command) and write down the following: @ IN SOA localhost. root.localhost. (2000102403; Serial28800; Refresh14400; Retry3600000; Expire86400); MinimumIN NS localhost. samsung. IN A 123.456.789.0 sori. IN A 987.374.234.2 pingpong. IN A 343.467.32.24 If it is written down, press Esc key, press ":" (Shift +;) in the middle right, write the letters "w" and "q" and press Enter to save. The network registration information for the client computer is as follows. When accessing the Internet through Explorer, if you write a domain in the address bar, you can always find out the IP address through the name server and get the result you want. If the name server doesn't have the IP address of the domain you are looking for, you can get the result from another name server (KR, COM, NET, etc.). To connect to a virtual domain, you must get the result via a name server that contains information about the virtual domain. Right-clicking on the network icon brings up a pop-up menu as shown in Figure 4g. Select the "Properties (R)" menu at the bottom. Thereafter, when the network properties dialog box appears as shown in FIG. 4h, find and select the "TCP / IP" item and select "Properties." Then, the TCP / IP Properties dialog box appears as shown in FIG. 4I. Select the tab "DNS Configuration", enter the name server IP address in "DNS Server Address to find", and select the "OK" button. You will be prompted with a "You must restart your system for the new settings to take effect." (S2 course)

A client uses a virtual domain to browse a website. In this case, the virtual domain name or the ICANN method domain address may be input in the address window (URL window) of the client. This searching step is to install and use a virtual domain search program for searching a registered virtual domain on a client or a server. In addition, the virtual domain search program is preferably used in connection with a web browser (browser) or portal site (S3 process).

The server analyzes the search request information to determine whether it is a virtual domain search request or an ICANN method domain search request.

If the client requests the search of the virtual domain, the domain information is retrieved through the database table mapped one-to-one with the ICANN domain name (step S5).

After the search is completed, the domain search results are sent to the client computer. The virtual domain search program used in the present invention preferably has a URL window for writing a domain and a search box for searching a virtual domain on one screen, and the search method is that a search engine displays the domain and its contents on the screen. On the other hand, in the virtual domain search program, the searched virtual domain is displayed on the screen as databased text. For example, if a virtual domain searches for the website "universe", the domain containing the word universe is universe.com; universe.net; universe.star; universe.inst; universe.film; universe.group; universe.company; The virtual domain names of the web sites subscribed to the virtual domain system such as universe.res are displayed on the screen as shown in FIG.

Also, searching for the top-level domain named "star" may result in venus.star; moon.star stum.star; sun.star; mercury.star; A screen with the information of mars.star appears in the browser and searches for the site with the top-level domain star. Therefore, the virtual domain search program used in the present invention can be used by linking to a web browser or a portal site, so that an Internet user can use a web browser or access a portal site to search a domain to a desired web site. You can move quickly (S6 process).

When the client sees the domain search information displayed on the browser predetermined screen and clicks the desired place with the mouse, it indicates the selection signal of the corresponding web site. This selection signal is provided to the server via the Internet (S7 process).

If a virtual domain system according to the present invention is installed in the client computer, each letter registered in the virtual domain in the client computer is converted into three digits and transmitted to the server, and the server is linked to the corresponding ICANN type domain. . As such, it is preferable to use the virtual domain conversion program by linking it to a web browser or a portal site, and the virtual domain conversion program is installed on the client and the server, and the input virtual domain is installed on the virtual domain conversion program. It is also possible to convert only the server to the domain of ICANN method (S8 process).

The converted virtual domain is moved to the domain of the ICANN method and displayed on the web browser of the client computer (S9).

If the domain search information is for searching an ICANN method domain name, search the domain of the ICANN method (S10 process) and move to a site having an IP address according to the search result to the web browser of the client computer. Display it. If it is set as shown in the above example 1), if "samsung.car.shop" or "prime.car.shop" is written in the address bar (URL) of the browser, the IP address is returned from the name server. The homepage is printed. (S11 process)

Although the present invention has been described with reference to the above embodiments, it is not necessarily limited thereto, and various modifications can be made without departing from the scope and spirit of the present invention.

As described above, the virtual domain system of the present invention provides the Internet users with more accurate and symbolic virtual domain names to more efficiently use the Internet.

In addition, the virtual domain system of the present invention is to prevent disputes by providing a variety of domain names to Internet users.

Furthermore, the virtual domain system of the present invention provides a program that facilitates domain search by enabling an accurate and effective search of Internet web sites or materials using the virtual domain system.
