Configure private DNS zones
Configure private DNS zones In addition to supporting internet-facing DNS domains, Azure DNS also supports private DNS domains. This provides an alternative approach to name resolution within and between virtual networks. By using private DNS zones, you can use your own custom domain names—including the DNS suffix, rather than the Azure-provided DNS suffix—without the overhead…
Configure custom DNS settings
Configure custom DNS settings When a virtual machine connects to a virtual network, it receives its IP address via DHCP. As part of that DHCP exchange, DNS settings are also configured in the VM. By default, VMs are configured to use recursive DNS servers in Azure. These provide name resolution for internet- hosted domains, plus…
Alias records – MS AZ-104 Exam Guide
Alias records Azure DNS offers integration with other services hosted in Azure via alias records. With conventional DNS records, you explicitly specify the target, such as the IP address of an A record. If the IP address changes, you need to update the DNS record accordingly. Using alias records, you can define the target of…
Manage DNS records in Azure DNS
Manage DNS records in Azure DNS Each record in the domain name system includes the following properties: The collection of records in a DNS zone with the same name and the same type is called a resource record set. (These collections are also referred to as “RRSets” and as “record sets” in Azure DNS). Records…
Create and delegate a DNS Zone to Azure DNS
Create and delegate a DNS Zone to Azure DNS A DNS zone is a resource in Azure DNS. Creating a DNS zone resource allocates authorita- tive DNS name servers to host the DNS records for that zone. Azure DNS can then be used to manage those DNS records. DNS queries directed to those DNS name…

Configure name resolution and load balancing
Skill 4.3: Configure name resolution and load balancing Humans work with names, but computers prefer IP addresses. Fundamentally, DNS is about mapping names to IP addresses, making name-based rather than IP-based networking possible. Simplifying somewhat, a client makes a DNS query containing a domain name and receives a response containing the IP address for that…
Configure private endpoints for Azure services
Configure private endpoints for Azure servicesPrivate endpoints take the concept of service endpoints one step further. In the same scenario of a VM in subnet0 trying to communicate with a storage account, in addition to using a pri- vate IP address as the source IP address, the destination IP address will also be private. Private…
