You are the network administrator for the network that consists of a single Active Directory forest with 14 domains. All servers run Windows Server 2003. Only the DNS servers in the abc.com domain have access to the Internet to resolve Internet DNS names. What should you do to configure each DNS server so that unresolved queries are resolved by DNS servers in the abc.com domain?
  1. Replace the root hints with the addresses of the DNS servers in the abc.com domain.
  2. Create a stub zone named abc.com that contains a copy of the IIHT.com zone.
  3. Configure the default forwarding entry to forward data to DNS servers in the abc.com domain.
  4. Configure a conditional forwarding entry for abc.com that forwards data to DNS servers in the abc.com domain.
Explanation
Answer - C - You should configure the default forwarding entry to forward data to DNS servers in the abc.com domain so that unresolved queries are resolved.

Key Takeaway: A forwarder is a DNS server on a network used to forward DNS queries for external DNS names to DNS servers outside of that network. A DNS server on a network is a forwarder when other DNS servers in the network forward the queries they cannot resolve locally to that DNS server. By using a forwarder, you can manage name resolution for names outside of your network, such as names on the Internet, and you can improve the efficiency of name resolution for the computers in your network.
