Which DNS record type should you recommend?

A.
SRV

B.
MX

C.
CNAME

D.
A

Explanation:
A CNAME record maps a specific domain, such as contoso.com or www.contoso.com, to a canonical
domain name. In this case, the canonical domain name is the <myapp>.cloudapp.net domain name
of your Azure hosted application. Once created, the CNAME creates an alias for the
<myapp>.cloudapp.net. The CNAME entry will resolve to the IP address of your
<myapp>.cloudapp.net service automatically, so if the IP address of the cloud service changes, you
do not have to take any action.
Incorrect:
Not D:
* Since an A record is mapped to a static IP address, it cannot automatically resolve changes to the IP
address of your Cloud Service.
* An A record maps a domain, such as contoso.com or www.contoso.com, or a wildcard domain such
as *.contoso.com, to an IP address. In the case of an Azure Cloud Service, the virtual IP of the
service. So the main benefit of an A record over a CNAME record is that you can have one entry that
uses a wildcard, such as *.contoso.com, which would handle requests for multiple sub-domains such
as mail.contoso.com, login.contoso.com, or www.contso.com.

    You can also use CNAME or A records to associate a custom domain name with your VM. When you use A records, however, you need to note that the VIP of your VM might change. When you deallocate a VM, the associated VIP is released. And when the VM is restarted later, a new VIP will be picked and assigned. If you want to ensure that your VM has a static public IP address, you’ll need to confi gure a static IP address for it as described earlier.

    Finally passed the 70-534 exam for the second try! Scored 952/1000 points, and the passing score is 700 now!

    There were indeed some new questions in my real 70-534 exam, but not difficult to answer if you have good knowledge on Azure AD/Graph API/LDAP, Service Bus Queues provides FIFO, Content Delivery Network (CDN) and so on.

    And, I studied many helpful books, like Exam Ref 70-534 Architecting Microsoft Azure Solutions, and online training course (Microsoft Virtual: Academy Architecting Microsoft Azure Solutions), and mainly practiced the premium 70-534 exam dumps from http://bitly.com/70-534-exam-dumps (142q, VCE and PDF dumps both helpful!), parts of that 142q PDF dumps can be downloaded from ( drive.google.com/open?id=0B-ob6L_QjGLpUUNnSVA5SFdpZ2c )

    Good Luck!

    P.S. Do not worry about those new 70-534 questions, they are not as difficult as you thought, go ahead just now!

    I’m wondering if the answer for this is MX Record, because it says “a DNS record type that will ALLOW you to CONFIGURE access..” it’s not saying a record to direct queries with the custom domain, that would 100% be CNAME or A record.
    An MX record is used to verify the custom domain, which you must to in order to allow you to configure access via the custom domain name.

    Cheeky bastards…
