Exam: az-800
Domain: Implement and manage an on-premises and hybrid networking infrastructure
Topic: Implement on-premises and hybrid name resolution
Difficulty: hard
You have a hybrid environment and need on-premises servers to resolve the DNS name of an Azure SQL Database connected via an Azure Private Endpoint. What type of DNS configuration should you implement on your on-premises DNS server?

Answer Options

A
A stub zone pointing to the root hints.
B
A conditional forwarder for the privatelink domain.
C
A secondary zone for the Azure public DNS.
D
A GlobalNames zone.

Correct Answer

B: A conditional forwarder for the privatelink domain.

Explanation

To resolve Azure Private Endpoints from on-premises, you should configure a conditional forwarder on your on-premises DNS servers pointing the specific 'privatelink' zone (e.g., privatelink.database.windows.net) to the Azure DNS Private Resolver or a DNS forwarder VM in Azure.
