| Happy Friday everyone. So who's going to see Star Trek-Nemesis tonight? (I can't, I have to go Xmas shopping with my wife tonight )
Anyways, here's a good DNS/DHCP weekender question for everyone. It might be a little outside the scope of the 210 exam, but it's not too bad.
Capt. Picard is a network administrator. The network he supports contains 8 Windows 2000 Server systems, 75 Windows 2000 Professional computers and 100 Windows NT4 Workstation systems.
The network runs dynamic DNS (DDNS) and Picard is using DHCP to automate the TCP/IP configuration process for all the client computers and he wants to accomplish the following:
* A(host) and PTR(pointer) records for all the client computers will be automatically added to the respective DNS lookup zone files.
* All client computers located on the network will be able to be located by its (FQDN)Fully Qualified Domain Name.
* A(host) and PTR(pointer) records for all the client computers will be automatically removed from the respective DNS lookup zone files when the DHCP lease expires.
Capt. Picard configures the DHCP server to:
1) Always update client computer information in DNS.
2) Discard forward lookups when the lease expires.
3) Update DNS for client computers that do not support dynamic updates.
4) Configures the DHCP scope to configure the domain name for all DHCP clients.
Which results does Capt. Picard accomplish? (Choose All that Apply)
A. A(host) records are automatically added to the DNS zones files for all client computers.
B. PTR(pointer) records are automatically added to the DNS zones files for all client computers.
C. All client computers are able to be located on the network by FQDN.
D. A and PTR records are automatically removed from their respective DNS zone files when the DHCP lease expires.
Good luck and see you Monday for the answer!! | |

ABCD | |

| yeah, I'm new here, I can say "all of the above" just to see how bad I get wacked. I just started my book and I'm already scared. | |

Yeah its a whole lot of info glut to guzzle down, just take it one step at a time. Its really helpful if your working in a w2k network evironment regulary, if not be sure to do plenty of labs, i do not suggest trying to go at it by the book alone, you will get frustrated at least and a paper cert at best, if your lucky. | |

| A-B-C-D
looks like a 216 or 218 Question.
cool! | |
|
| A,B,C,D sound good.
But surely Picard would ask Data to "make it so".  | |

D. A and PTR records are automatically removed from their respective DNS zone files when the DHCP lease expires.

And the answers are....A,B,C,D
When a DHCP server is configured to Always update forward and reverse lookups, it will update both A and PTR records on behalf of the clients. The Windows NT boxes will be able to be located by FQDN because the option to Configure the DHCP server to always update client computer information in DNS is selected. (Update DNS for client computers that do not support dynamic updates). In a Dynamic DNS (DDNS) environment, the DHCP server removes (cleans up) both A (host) and PTR (pointer records in the DNS zone when the client lease expires.
So we've basically got a nice little setup going on here. 
Nice job everyone! |
