and Stub zone?


In windows DNS server,

 Primary Zone: In this, the file is saved as normal text file with
filename (. dns).
 Secondary Zone: It maintains a read-only copy of zone database
on another DNS server. Also, it acts as a back-up server to the
primary server by providing fault tolerance and load balancing
 Stub Zone: It consists of a copy of name server and SOA records
which is used for reducing the DNS search orders.

2) Explain what does IntelliMirror do?


IntelliMirror helps to reconcile desktop settings, applications and
stored files for users especially for those users who move between
workstations or those who works offline

3) In the case when MSI file is not available, how you can install
an app?
To add the application using the Software Installer.ZAP text file can be
used rather than the windows installer

preference will still persist in the registry.

6) Mention how many types of queries DNS does?


The types of queries DNS does are

 Iterative Query
 Recursive Query

7) Explain what is the primary function of the domain controller?


Primary function of the domain controller is to validate users to the
networks, it also provide a catalog of Active Directory Objects.

8) What information is required when TCP/IP is configured on


Window Server?
To configure a TCP/PI client for an IPv4 client, you have to provide the
IP address and the subnet mask.

9) Explain what does it mean caching only server in terms of


DNS?
The caching only DNS server provides information related to queries
based on the data it contains in its DNS cache.
10) Explain what is the way to configure the DHCP server such
that it allocates the same IP address to certain devices each
time the address is removed?
To configure the DHCP server, you can create a reservation for the
device. To create a reservation, you must know the MAC hardware
address of the device. To determine the MAC address for a network
device you can use the ipconfig or nbs tat command line utilities.

11) Explain what is LDAP?


To look up for the information from the server, e-mail and another
program follows or uses the internet protocol. This protocol is referred
as LDAP or Lightweight Directory Access Protocol.

For storing same data at a different place RAID or Redundant Array of
Independent Disks strategy is used. It is a strategy for building fault
tolerance and increase the storage capacity. On separate drives it
allows you to combine one or more volumes so that they are accessed
by a single drive letter

16) Explain what is the purpose of deploying local DNS servers?


A local DNS server provides the local mapping of fully qualified domain
names to IP addresses. To resolve remote requests related to the
domains names on your network, local DNS servers can provide record
information to remote DNS servers.

17) To check TCP/IP configurations and IP connectivity, what


are the two command line utilities that can be used?
Ipconfig: To check the computer’s IP configuration, command ipconfig
can be used and also it can be used to renew the client’s IP address if it
is provided by a DHCP server. Ping: To check the connection between

network Ping command is used
