Explanation / Answer

c)Answer:

Types of

DNS Zone Records

Description

SOA Record

A SOA record set is created automatically at the apex of each zone (name = '@'), and is deleted automatically when the zone is deleted. SOA records cannot be created or deleted separately.

You can modify all properties of the SOA record except for the 'host' property, which is pre-configured to refer to the primary name server name provided by Azure DNS.

NS Records

The NS record set at the zone apex (name '@') is created automatically with each DNS zone, and is deleted automatically when the zone is deleted (it cannot be deleted separately).

This record set contains the names of the Azure DNS name servers assigned to the zone. You can add additional name servers to this NS record set, to support co-hosting domains with more than one DNS provider. You can also modify the TTL and metadata for this record set. However, you cannot remove or modify the pre-populated Azure DNS name servers.

Note that this applies only to the NS record set at the zone apex. Other NS record sets in your zone (as used to delegate child zones) can be created, modified and deleted without constraint

A Records

MX Records

CNAME Records

CNAME records

CNAME record sets cannot coexist with other record sets with the same name. For example, you cannot create a CNAME record set with the relative name 'www' and an A record with the relative name 'www' at the same time.

Because the zone apex (name = '@') always contains the NS and SOA record sets that were created when the zone was created, you can't create a CNAME record set at the zone apex.

These constraints arise from the DNS standards and are not limitations of Azure DNS.

This record set contains the names of the Azure DNS name servers assigned to the zone. You can add additional name servers to this NS record set, to support co-hosting domains with more than one DNS provider. You can also modify the TTL and metadata for this record set.

Note that this applies only to the NS record set at the zone apex. Other NS record sets in your zone (as used to delegate child zones) can be created, modified and deleted without constraint

A Records

A Records are the most basic type of DNS recordand are used to point a domain or subdomain to an IP address. Assigning a value to an A record is as simple as providing your DNS management panel with an IP address to where the domain or subdomain should point and a TTL

MX Records

A mail exchanger record (MX record) is a type of resourcerecord in the Domain Name System that specifies a mail server responsible for accepting email messages on behalf of a recipient's domain, and a preference value used to prioritize mail delivery if multiple mail servers.
