Difficulty: EasyConfigure Azure DNS Private and Public Zones

An organization is setting up a private name resolution system in Azure. A Private DNS zone named corp.internal has been created. The IT team wants virtual machines in a virtual network named VNet-Core to automatically register their hostname and private IP addresses in this DNS zone.

Which setting must be configured to achieve this?

  1. A virtual network link from the corp.internal zone to VNet-Core with the auto-registration option enabledAnswer
  2. B
    A virtual network link from the corp.internal zone to VNet-Core with the auto-registration option disabled
  3. C
    A custom DNS server IP address configured on the properties of VNet-Core that points to Azure DNS
  4. D
    A DNS forwarding rule on a virtual network gateway that is associated with VNet-Core

Answer

A virtual network link from the corp.internal zone to VNet-Core with the auto-registration option enabled must be created.
To achieve both name resolution and automatic registration of virtual machines, a virtual network link must be created between the Private DNS zone and the virtual network with the auto-registration setting enabled. This configuration automatically creates A records for the virtual machines in the private zone when they are deployed.

Step-by-Step Solution

1
Identify the requirement for automatic hostname registration in the Private DNS zone.
Realize that Azure Private DNS requires a virtual network link with the auto-registration option active to perform this action.
Without a virtual network link, the virtual network has no association with the Private DNS zone.
2
Differentiate between name resolution and auto-registration.
Conclude that enabling auto-registration is specifically required to dynamically register VM hostnames, whereas a basic link only provides resolution.
Ensures that new VM deployments are dynamically updated in the zone without manual record creation.
