Given the two SRV records below, when a client requests a page from a Web server, which server will be the preferred one and why?

_http._tcp.test.com. IN SRV 0 0 80 server1.wh.test.com.
_http._tcp.test.com. IN SRV 10 0 80 server2.wh.test.com.

A. Server2 will be the preferred server because it has a priority value of 10.

B. Server1 will be the preferred server because it is listed first.

C. Server1 will be the preferred server because it has a priority value of 0.

D. Server2 will be the preferred server because it has a TTL value of 10.

Mmmm...ok, let me think. If i recall well, the meaning of the SRV record is:

SRV 0 0 80 (Server 1)
SRV 10 0 80 (Server 2)

For Server 1
1st number (0 in this case): priority
2nd number (0 in this case): weight
3rd number (80 in this case): port Number

For Server 2
1st number (10 in this case): priority
2nd number (0 in this case): weight
3rd number (80 in this case): port Number


Priority: lower values have higher priority. If two records have the same priority, then the "weight" is used, and the record with heavy weight wins.

So, my answer is letter "C"...



PS: nice question!!!

The answer is C. Priority takes precedence.

And the answer is of course C. Server1 will be the preferred server because it has a priority value of 0.

Well done everyone

From the Introduction to DNS chapter of the Windows 2000 Resource Kit, the format of an SRV record is as follows:

_Service._Proto.Name TTL Class SRV Priority Weight Port Target

The Priority field specifies the priority of the host. Clients attempt to contact the host with the lowest priority.
