You have an Active Directory–integrated domain named. csmtech.local, with two DCs that are DNS servers. You also have an Internet presence with its own domain name, smpub, and a DNS server that's not part of an Active Directory domain. You want the DCs to be able to resolve the names of csmpub resources and to act as backup for the csmpub DNS database. What can you do to achieve these goals? Describe the steps you would take.

Final answer:

To resolve csmpub resources and act as backup DNS, create a secondary DNS zone on Active Directory DNS servers, configure zone transfers from csmpub DNS server to AD DNS, and adjust firewall settings to allow traffic.

Step-by-step explanation:

To achieve the goals of resolving names of csmpub resources and acting as backup for the csmpub DNS database from the Active Directory‑integrated domain csmtech.local, several steps need to be taken.

  1. Create a secondary DNS zone on the Active Directory DNS servers for the csmpub domain. This allows the DCs to hold a read-only copy of the DNS records, which is used for name resolution.
  2. Configure zone transfers between the csmpub DNS server and the Active Directory DNS servers. This is typically done by allowing transfers to the IP addresses of the AD DNS servers and may require creating a transfer policy on the csmpub DNS server.
  3. Ensure that firewall settings allow the required traffic between these servers, specifically DNS traffic (port 53), so they can communicate and transfer data.

By following these steps, the Active Directory domain controllers will also serve as backup DNS for the csmpub domain, providing redundancy and improving name resolution efficiency.

Answer:

An active directory is a service in which windows advanced for domain networks. it is used mostly in windows operating system as set processes and service

The steps taken to enable resolving of names of csmpub resources and to act as backup for the csmpub DNS database is stated below in the explanation section.

Step-by-step explanation:

Solution:

Active Directory:

This is a directory service in which windows advanced for domain networks.

It is used mostly in windows operating system as a set of service and processes

Step taken to achieve the goals:

  • The two PC's and DNS server zones are placed in name server and the major zones are placed away in a content record on the PC server
  • The records are synchronized with he DNS server so that the active directory coordinated DNS can arrange a space controller
  • The DNS coordinates with the ADDS (active directory domain services) when we can introduce the active directory on a sever , and can raise the server path for an area.
  • By doing this we can determine the DNS space name for the active directory which we are joining and advancing the server path
  • NET Stop DNS client on a test PC will harm the DNS client administration, it is best we leave the DNS client benefit for all time crippled, if the space controller does not depend on DHCP (Dynamic host configuration protocol) to set the IP address.
  • DHCP relies upon only the DNS client administration
