Your network contains an Active Directory domain named contoso.com. All domain controllers run
Windows Server 2012 R2. One of the domain controllers is named DC1.
The DNS zone for the contoso.com zone is Active Directory-integrated and has the default settings.
A server named Server1 is a DNS server that runs a UNIX-based operating system.
You plan to use Server1 as a secondary DNS server for the contoso.com zone.
You need to ensure that Server1 can host a secondary copy of the contoso.com zone.
What should you do?
A.
From DNS Manager, modify the Advanced settings of DC1.
B.
From DNS Manager, modify the Zone Transfers settings of the contoso.com zone.
C.
From Windows PowerShell, run the Set-DnsServerForwardercmdlet and specify the contoso.com
zone as a target.
D.
From DNS Manager, modify the Security settings of DC1.
Explanation:
There are two ways that a secondary DNS server can be added. In both scenarios you will need to
add the new server to the Forwarders list of the primary Domain Controller.
1. The Set-DnsServerForwarder cmdlet changes forwarder settings on a Domain Name System (DNS)
server.
2. From the primary server, open DNS Manager, right click on the server name and select Properties.
Click on the Forwarders tab and click the Edit button in the middle of the dialogue box.
Provider answer seems to be wrong. You’d just have to enable zone transfers for the contoso.com zone to specified server(s) (Server1 in this case).
A
answer is b.verified
Correct answer is A.
Just tested in my test lab, a default MS DNS configuration has no “Allow BIND” by default. If you want to transfer zone to UNIX based DNS servers, this the first thing to enable.

Definitely B, regardless of it being a Linux DNS.

I think the answer is A because Server 1 is UNIX based, you need to tick the ‘Enable BIND secondaries’ checkbox on the Advanced tab of DC1.

I guess it comes down to what do you do first, and that would be enable the Bind secondaries. Then set the Zone Transfers. The answer of using forwarders misses the point.
Good Point Peter.
B!!!!!!!!!!!!

Which shows the answer as A but uses the same explanation as this question, so doesn’t really clear anything up 🙂
Your network contains an Active Directory domain named contoso.com. All domain controllers run Windows Server 2012 R2. One of the domain controllers is named DC1.
The DNS zone for the contoso.com zone is Active Directory-integrated and has the default settings.
A server named Server1 is a DNS server that runs a UNIX-based operating system.
You plan to use Server1 as a secondary DNS server for the contoso.com zone.
You need to ensure that Server1 can host a secondary copy of the contoso.com zone.
What should you do?
A. From Windows PowerShell, run the Set-DnsServerPrimaryZone cmdlet and specify the contoso.com
zone as a target.
B. From DNS Manager, modify the Security settings of DC1
C. From DNS Manager, modify the replication scope of the contoso.com zone
D. From DNS Manager, modify the Advanced settings of DC1.
Answer: A
Explanation:
Set-DnsServerPrimaryZone
Changes settings for a DNS primary zone.
Applies To: Windows Server 2012 R2
The Set-DnsServerPrimaryZone cmdlet changes settings for an existing Domain Name System (DNS) primary zone. You can change values that are relevant for either Active Directory-integrated zones or file-backed zones.
Examples of parameters include:
/ -NotifyServers
Specifies an array of IP addresses of secondary DNS servers that the DNS master server notifies of changes to resource records. You need this parameter only if you selected the value NotifyServers for the Notify parameter.
/ -Notify
Specifies how a DNS master server notifies secondary servers of changes to resource records. The acceptable values for this parameter are:
— NoNotify. The zone does not send change notifications to secondary servers. — Notify. The zone sends change notifications to all secondary servers. — NotifyServers. The zone sends change notifications to some secondary servers. If you choose this option, specify the list of secondary servers in the NotifyServers parameter.
