Home » Microsoft » 70-640 » Which command should you run?
Your network contains an Active Directory domain named contoso.com.
The contoso.com domain contains a domain controller named DC1.
You create an Active Directory-integrated GlobalNames zone.
You add an alias (CNAME) resource record named Server1 to the zone.
The target host of the record is server2.contoso.com.
When you ping Server1, you discover that the name fails to resolve.
You are able to successfully ping server2.contoso.com.
You need to ensure that you can resolve names by using the GlobalNames zone.
Which command should you run?
A. Dnscmd DC1.contoso.com /ZoneAdd GlobalNames /DsPrimary /DP /domain
B. Dnscmd DC1.contoso.com /config /Enableglobalnamessupport forest
C. Dnscmd DC1.contoso.com /config /Enableglobalnamessupport 1
D. Dnscmd DC1.contoso.com /ZoneAdd GlobalNames /DsPrimary /DP /forest
Correct Answer: C
Explanation/Reference:
Support for Globalnames must be enabled, otherwise the DNS Server service does not resolve single-label names in the GlobalNames zone.
