Chapter 8: Managing Windows Server 2008 Network Services Flashcards
Used in IPv6, a packet that goes only to the closest interface and does not attempt to reach the other interfaces with the same address.
Anycast
A LAN and WAN transport method that uses cells, multiple channels, and switching to send voice, video, and data transmissions on the same network.
Asynchronous Transfer Mode (ATM)
A DNS server that has a large number of entries in its zones can load those entries as a background process. DNS queries can be going on as the zones are loading, instead of waiting until all zone loading is finished.
Background Zone Loading
A protocol that enables information in a DNS server to be automatically updated in coordination with DHCP.
DNS dynamic update protocol
Resource records are created for two or more servers that have different IP addresses but that
are associated with the same host name, such as IP addresses 192.168.1.5 and 192.168.1.6 that are associated with the host name researchserver.
DNS round robin
A form of DNS that enables client computers to update DNS registration information
so that this does not have to be done manually. DDNS is often used with DHCP servers to automatically register
IP addresses on a DNS server.
Dynamic DNS (DDNS)
A version of DHCP that can be used with IPv6
implementation on a network.
Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol for IPv6 (DHCPv6)
A DNS zone or table that maps computer names to IP addresses.
forward lookup zone
A record in a DNS forward lookup zone that consists of a computer or domain name correlated to an IP version 4 (or 32-bit) address.
host address (A) resource record
A record in a DNS forward lookup zone that consists of a
computer or domain name mapped to an IP version 6 (or 128-bit) address.
IPv6 host address (AAAA) resource record
