1.You are configuring a Windows 2000 DNS Server on your company network. The network consists of one Windows NT domain. You already have DNS installed on a Windows NT Server on the Windows NT domain. You want to use dynamic updates on a DNS database, but company management will not allow an upgrade or decommission of the Windows NT DNS server. All DNS information must be synchronized between the two DNS servers. What do you do to accomplish these goals? (Choose three) A. Create a standard primary zone on a Windows 2000 DNS Server and import the existing zone file. B. Create a standard secondary zone on a Windows 2000 DNS Server. C. Delete and re-create the primary zone on the NT DNS Server. D. Delete the existing zone and create a new secondary zone on the NT DNS Server. E. Configure the primary zone on the NT DNS Server as the master zone for the secondary zone on the Windows 2000 DNS Server. F. Configure the secondary zone on the NT DNS Server to use the Windows 2000 Standard primary zone as its master zone. Answer: A, D, F

Explanation:
A: Dynamic updates are a new feature of Windows 2000 DNS. They are not supported by NT DNS. To enable dynamic updates we need to create a primary DNS zone on the Windows 2000 server. A secondary zone will not do because only the primary DNS zone is updateable. We can import the zone data from the NT server to avoid having to create a new zone file.
D: We need to delete the primary zone on the NT server and create a secondary zone. The NT server must have a secondary zone to enable the server to transfer zone files from the now primary Windows 2000 server.
F: We can now set the secondary zone on the NT server to use the primary zone on the Windows 2000 server. The Windows 2000 DNS zone will be dynamically updated. The new information will then be replicated to the Windows NT Server.

Incorrect answers:
B: The Windows 2000 server must have a primary zone to support dynamic updates, as only a primary zone is updateable. Furthermore, the primary zone must reside on the Windows 2000 computer because Windows NT Server does not support dynamic updates.
C: The primary zone must reside on the Windows 2000 computer because Windows NT Server does not support dynamic updates. We thus cannot delete and recreate the primary zone on the Windows NT Server.
E: The primary zone must reside on the Windows 2000 computer because Windows NT Server does not support dynamic updates. Furthermore, the Windows NT Server requires a secondary zone to pull DNS information from the Windows 2000 server. A primary zone cannot pull zone data from a secondary zone.

2.You are the administrator of your company’s network. The network consists of one Windows 2000 domain that spans multiple subnets. You are configuring DNS for hostname resolution throughout the network. You want to achieve the following goals: • DNS zone transfer traffic will be minimized on the network. • Administrative overhead for maintaining DNS zone files will be minimized. • Unauthorized host computers will not have records created in the zone. • All zone updates will come only from authorized DNS servers. • All zone transfer information will be secured as it crosses the network. You take the following actions: • Create an Active Directory integrated zone. • In the Zone Properties dialog box, set the Allow Dynamic Updates option to Yes • On the Name Servers tab of the Zone Properties dialog box, enter the names and addresses of all DNS servers on the network. • On the zone transfers tab of the zone properties dialog box, select the Allow Zone transfers only to the servers listed on the Name servers tab option Which result or results do these actions produce? (Choose all that apply) A. DNS zone transfer traffic is minimized on the network. B. Administrative overhead for maintaining DNS zone files is minimized. C. Unauthorized host computers do not have records created in the zone. D. All zone updates come only from authorized DNS servers E. All zone transfer information is secured as it crosses the network. Answer: A, B, D, E

Explanation:
A: Active Directory integrated zones use IXFR, which are incremental transfers. This means that only the records that have changed since the last replication are replicated. This makes the replication of Active Directory integrated zones more efficient because the whole zone file is replicated during standard primary zone replication.
B: Dynamic updates is the process of a client computer updating it is own record in the DNS zone file. This will prevent the need to manually enter records in the DNS zone.
D: Selecting the “Allow Zone transfers only to the servers listed on the Name servers tab” option prevents unauthorized servers from updating the zone. Dynamic updates have been enabled.
E: Active Directory DNS zones replicate their data as part of Active Directory replication. Active Directory replication uses a secure RPC channel to replicate data.

Incorrect answers:
C: The “Only Secure Updates" option must be selected to be sure that no unauthorized DNS records are created in the zone. Secure updates specify that only users, groups or computers that have been granted the right to write to the zone or record have the ability to update the record.

3.You are the administrator of a Windows 2000 network for Miller Textiles. The network configuration is shown in the exhibit..

The millertextiles.com domain is hosted on Server1 as an Active Directory integrated zone, and on Server3 as a secondary zone. All the client computers on Segment B are Windows 2000 Professional computers. All the client computers on Segment A are down-level client computers. All the client computers use DHCP. You share some network resources on several of the client computers on Segment A. Several days later you attempt to connect to those shared resources from client computers running on segment B, but you are unable to resolve the host names of client computers on Segment A. How should you correct this problem? A. On the DHCP server, set the DNS Domain Name scope option to millertextiles.com. B. On Server1 for the millertextiles.com zone, change the value of Allow Dynamic Updates from the default settings to Yes. C. Configure the millertextiles.com domain to allow zone transfers to all the computers on the network. D. On server2, enable updates for DNS clients that do not support dynamic updates. Answer: D

Explanation:
When a client on Segment B wants to access a shared resource on a computer on Segment A, it must first resolve the host name of the computer on Segment A to an IP address. This type of name resolution is performed by DNS. In this scenario, however, the clients are unable to resolve the host names to IP addresses because there are no entries in the DNS for the clients on Segment A. The clients on Segment A are down-level clients and are therefore unable to update DNS with information about the resources and services running on the machines. This problem can be overcome by manually entering the appropriate records in the DNS zone, or by configuring the DHCP server to update the records for the down-level clients. Enabling Server2, which is the DHCP server, to update DNS for the clients will enable the clients on Segment B to resolve their host names.

Incorrect answers:
A: The millertextiles.com domain is hosted on Server1 as an Active Directory integrated zone, and on Server3 as a secondary zone. Therefore, the DNS Domain Name scope option is set to millertextiles.com on the DHCP server. This will therefore not update the DNS zones for the down-level clients. We should instead configure the DHCP server to update the records for the down-level clients.
B: Server1 has an Active Directory integrated zone, which would require that the value of Allow Dynamic Updates be set to Yes. As an Active Directory integrated zone, this option is already set. This will therefore not update the DNS zones for the down-level clients. We should instead configure the DHCP server to update the records for the down-level clients.
C: Configuring the millertextiles.com domain to allow zone transfers to all the computers on the network will not affect the down-level client’s ability to update DNS. To enable the down-level clients to update DNS we should configure the DHCP server to update the records for the down-level clients.

4.You are the administrator of a Windows 2000 network. Your network consists of five sites in one domain. The Chicago, Los Angeles, and New York sites will have DNS running on their Domain Controllers. Miami and Seattle will have DNS running on dedicated member servers. You want to allow client computers in the Chicago, Los Angeles, and New York sites to perform secure dynamic updates to the DNS server. You want to configure your DNS servers so that each site has a replicated copy of the DNS zone. What should you do? To answer, click the Select and Place button, and then drag the appropriate zone type to each site. (Note: zone types can be used more than once)

A.Chicago: Active Directory integrated zone.
Los Angeles: Active Directory integrated zone.
Miami: Secondary zone.
New York: Active Directory integrated zone.
Seattle: Secondary zone. Answer: A

Explanation:
Chicago: Active Directory integrated zone. Only Active Directory integrated zones support secure updates. Primary and secondary zones do not support secure updates. Cache only zones only keep records that have been resolved by passing the DNS query to a primary, secondary or Active Directory integrated zone.
Los Angeles: Active Directory integrated zone. Only Active Directory integrated zones support secure updates. Primary and zones do not support secure updates. Cache only zones only keep records that have been resolved by passing the DNS query to a primary, secondary or Active Directory integrated zone.
Miami: Secondary zone. A secondary zone is required for full zone replication. The question states a requirement for each location to have a full copy of the zone files. Only a secondary zone can receive a full copy of a zone file from a primary or Active Directory integrated zone.
New York: Active Directory integrated zone. Only Active Directory integrated zones support secure updates. Primary and zones do not support secure updates. Cache only zones only keep records that have been resolved by passing the DNS query to a primary, secondary or Active Directory integrated zone.
Seattle: Secondary zone. A secondary zone is required for full zone replication. The question states a requirement for each location to have a full copy of the zone files. Only a secondary zone can receive a full copy of a zone file from a primary or Active Directory integrated zone.
