Your network contains two DNS servers named DNS1 and DNS2 that run Windows Server 2012 R2.
DNS1 has a primary zone named contoso.com. DNS2 has a secondary copy of the contoso.com zone.
You need to log the zone transfer packets sent between DNS1 and DNS2.
What should you configure?
A.
debug logging from DNS Manager
B.
logging from Windows Firewall with Advanced Security
C.
monitoring from DNS Manager
D.
a Data Collector Set (DCS) from Performance Monitor
Explanation:
Monitoring DNS with the DNS Console
The DNS management console includes functionality that enables you to use the console to monitor
DNS activity:
* Event Logging tab: You can access the Event Logging tab located within the Properties dialog box of
the DNS server to specify the DNS events that you want to monitor. Through the Event Logging tab,
you can limit the events which are written to the DNS Events log.
* Monitoring tab: The Monitoring tab is also located within the Properties dialog box of the DNS
server. This tab allows you to test querying of the DNS server.
Reference: Monitoring and Troubleshooting DNS
Monitoring pane in DNS manager is only for test against DNS server. Debug Logging is the one we are looking for here.
