You need to prevent Server1 from attempting to resolve Internet host names for the client computers

Your network contains an Active Directory domain named contoso.com. The network contains 500 client
computers that run Windows 8. All of the client computers connect to the Internet by using a web proxy.
You deploy a server named Server1 that runs WindowsServer 2012. Server1 has the DNS Server server role
installed.
You configure all of the client computers to use Server1 as their primary DNS server.
You need to prevent Server1 from attempting to resolve Internet host names for the client computers.
What should you do on Server1?

What should you do on Server1?

A.
Remove all root hints.

B.
Create a primary zone named “GlobalNames”.

C.
Create a primary zone named “root”.

D.
Create a stub zone named “root”.

Explanation:
When a zone that this DNS server hostsis a stub zone, this DNS server is a
source only for information about the authoritativename servers for this zone. The zone at this server must be
obtained from another DNS server that hosts the zone. This DNS server must have network access to the
remote DNS server to copy the authoritative name server information about the zone.
Note:
You can use stub zones to:
* Keep delegated zone information current. By updating a stub zone for one of its child zones regularly, the
DNS server that hosts both the parent zone and the stub zone will maintain a current list of authoritative DNS
servers for the child zone.
* Improve name resolution. Stub zones enable a DNS server to perform recursion using the stub zone’s list of
name servers, without having to query the Internet or an internal root server for the DNS namespace.
* Simplify DNS administration. By using stub zones throughout your DNS infrastructure, you can distribute a list
of the authoritative DNS servers for a zone withoutusing secondary zones. However, stub zones do not serve
the same purpose as secondary zones, and they are not an alternative for enhancing redundancy and load
sharing.
Incorrect:
Not B:
* The DNS Server Role in Windows Server 2008 now supports the GlobalNames Zone. This has been
introduced to assist organizations to move away from WINS and allow organizations to move to an all-DNS
environment. Unlike WINS, The GlobalNames zone is not intended to be used for peer-to-peer name
resolution.

environment. Unlike WINS, The GlobalNames zone is not intended to be used for peer-to-peer name

Agreed. Appears to be missing answer choices but it is remove root hints or primary zone “.”

Man, just lost a couple of hours on this damned question. I downloaded the sample questions from Test King and selected “remove root hints” and “create a ‘.’ zone” for the two similar questions that came up… BOTH marked as wrong in the TestKing exam.. who said that I should “Create a Stub Zone named ‘Root””….

The answer is C.

See the KB298148 for Windows 2000 that discusses the solution, but inverse.

that article is talking about the “root” zone but the root zone’s name is “.”.

“…
Right-click the folder that is named “.” (period), click Delete,
…”

So the correct answer is A.Remove all root hints. but could also be Create Primary Zone named “.”.

I have tested this in a lab, Creating a primary zone named “Root” does not work (it needs to be names “.” to work), as “.” is not an option then the other way of doing it would be to remove root hints. so the answer is A
