Iterative mode is the default lookup mode for recursive servers. It is where the server follows the delegations from the root servers to talk to the authoritative servers directly. Recursive mode is where you use another recursive server (in iterative mode) to talk to the authoritative servers. Stub resolvers (in applications) use recursive mode.
