A.
Create a reverse lookup zone.

B.
Convert the contoso.com zone to an Active Directory-integrated zone.

C.
Configure dynamic updates for contoso.com.

D.
Create a GlobalNames zone.

Explanation:
Use GlobalNames zones in Windows Server 2008 to take advantage of single-label names Providing SingleLabel DNS Name Resolution:
While Domain Name System (DNS) is the predominant name-resolution technology in TCP/IP networks,
Windows Internet Name Service (WINS) is deployed inmany networks as an alternative nameresolutionprotocol.
GlobalNames Zone (GNZ) feature:
The GNZ feature is designed to enable DNS resolution of these single-label, static, global names.
You can deploy a GNZ in a single forest or across multiple forests. GNZ is intended to aid the retirement of
WINS. It is not a replacement for WINS. GNZ is not intended tosupport the single-label name resolutionof
records that are registered dynamically and therefore not managedby IT administrators. GNZ does make it
possible for you to provide single-label name resolution of a fixed set ofhost computers whose names are
guaranteed to be both global and unique.

      The first step in deploying a GlobalNames zone is to create the zone on a DNS server that is a domain controller running Windows Server 2008. The GlobalNames zone is not a special zone type; rather, it is simply an AD DS-integrated forward lookup zone that is called GlobalNames. For information about creating a primary forward lookup zone, see Add a Forward Lookup Zone.

      you must convert to ad

    step 1 – run following cmd on authoritative DNS Server:

    DNScmd (servername) /config /enableglobalnamessupport 1

    step 2 – create an AD integrated zone called -GlobalNames that is forest wide with dynamic updates disabled.

    Then add a CNAME for each single-label required.

    So yeah..D.
