Your network consists of a single Active Directory forest that contains two domains as shown in the image.

Server 1 has london.salespoint.com as the primary DNS zone and paris.salespoint.com as the secondary DNS zone with an IP address of 192.168.4.1. Server 2 has paris.salespoint.com as the primary DNS zone and london.salespoint.com as the secondary DNS zone with an IP address of 192.168.6.1.

How should you configure the primary and secondary DNS address referrals on the client computers in the Paris office to ensure that users have access to the Internet with as few network hops as possible?
  1. Configure 192.168.4.1 as the primary DNS server. Configure 140.106.10.5 as the secondary DNS server.
  2. Configure 192.168.6.1 as the primary DNS server. Configure 192.168.4.1 as the secondary DNS server.
  3. Configure 192.168.4.1 as the primary DNS server. Configure 192.168.6.1 as the secondary DNS server.
  4. Configure 140.106.10.5 as the primary DNS server. Configure 192.168.4.1 as the secondary DNS server.
Explanation
Answer - B - You should configure 192.168.6.1 as the primary DNS server and 192.168.4.1 as the secondary DNS server.

Key Takeaway: Configuring 192.168.6.1 as the primary DNS server ensures that users have access to the Internet with as few network hops as possible. The Paris office will use 192.168.4.1 which is the secondary DNS server only when the primary DNS fails. This way, the users can access resources on the internal network in Paris as quickly as possible, and DNS lookup traffic over the WAN does not occur if the local DNS server is available.
