Question
You have servers that have the DNS Server role installed. The servers are configured as shown in the following table.
| Name | Office | Local DNS zone | IP address |
|---|---|---|---|
| Server1 | Paris | contoso.com | 10.1.1.1 |
| Server2 | New York | None | 10.2.2.2 |
All the client computers in the New York office use Server2 as the DNS server.
You need to configure name resolution in the New York office to meet the following requirements:
✑ Ensure that the client computers in New York can resolve names from contoso.com.
✑ Ensure that Server2 forwards all DNS queries for internet hosts to 131. 107.100.200.
The solution must NOT require modifications to Server1.
Which two components should you configure on Server2? Each correct answer presents part of the solution.
NOTE: Each correct selection is worth one point.
- A. a forwarder Correct
- B. a conditional forwarder Correct
- C. a delegation
- D. a secondary zone
- E. a reverse lookup zone
Explanation
Option A is correct because configuring a forwarder on Server2 allows it to forward all DNS queries for internet hosts to the specified IP address (131.107.100.200). Option B is also correct as setting up a conditional forwarder specifically for the contoso.com zone ensures that client computers in New York can resolve names from this domain by forwarding those requests to Server1, which hosts the contoso.com zone.
