Lab 1.1 Configuring DNS PDF

This document provides steps to configure DNS in a Windows Server 2019 environment: 1. The VM is renamed to "DC" and connected to the VMnet0 network. 2. DNS services are installed on the DC server and forward and reverse lookup zones are created for the "wsa.net" domain. 3. Host A records are created for the DC server and a CNAME record is created to map "www" to the DC server. 4. Tests are run to validate that DNS name resolution is working properly.
