2.7. Summary
DNS was designed to be a robust, scalable, high-performance system for resolving friendly names to TCP/IP host addresses. We started by presenting an overview of the basics of DNS and how DNS names are generated. We then looked at the many new features available in the Microsoft Windows Server 2008 version of DNS and focused on how to install, configure, and manage the necessary services. Microsoft's DNS is based on a widely accepted set of industry standards. Because of this, Microsoft's DNS can work with both Windows and non-Windows based networks.
