HOTSPOT
Your network contains an Active Directory domain named contoso.com. The domain contains
domain controllers that run either Windows Server 2003, Windows Server 2008 R2, or Windows
Server 2012 R2.
You plan to implement a new Active Directory forest. The new forest will be used for testing and will
be isolated from the production network.
In the test network, you deploy a server named Server1 that runs Windows Server 2012 R2.
You need to configure Server1 as a new domain controller in a new forest named contoso.test.
The solution must meet the following requirements:
The functional level of the forest and of the domain must be the same as that of contoso.com.
Server1 must provide name resolution services for contoso.test.
What should you do?
To answer, configure the appropriate options in the answer area.

answer is correct
Answer: Windows Server 2003, Windows Server 2003, Domain Name System (DNS) server
Explanation: As there exists Windows Server 2003 domain controllers that currently exist in the forest and domain. Thus the existing domain is at the Windows Server 2003 functional level. Any new domain controller must be configured to match the existing functional level. Since we also want this server to function as a name resolution server, we must tick the Domain Name System (DNS) server option to enable DNS queries.

Exam Objective: Configure the Active Directory Infrastructure – Configure a Forest Or Domain
I think one thing is missing. You need to check the box for DNS. The requirement is that server1 provide name resolution services as well.
How is it missing? It’s clearly highlighted in the screenshot.
