There are many free DNS servers available. DNSadvantage, OpenDNS, and Norton are among the highest rated in terms of reliability. There is also ScrubIT, which is okay, though not as highly rated.

When would a dns server contact a root server?

If a DNS server cannot find the answer to the DNS Query in its own database it will first query the forwarders (if there are any configured) and then ask the root server. root servers (by default) are the master DNS servers of the Internet.


What is the purpose of a root server in DNS?

If a DNS server cannot find the answer to the DNS Query in its own database it will first query the forwarders (if there are any configured) and then ask the root server. root servers (by default) are the master DNS servers of the Internet. The are called A, B, C, ... These are the highest level of the DNS hierarchy. Ultimately, any DNS request that can't be solved at a lower level (through the use of a cache) is traced back to those 13 root servers. Them root server in general is . .com,.org etc but in your domain the first dc in the forest/domain is the one


What does Disable Recursion in DNS mean?

HiIn the Windows 2000/2003 DNS console (dnsmgmt.msc), under a server's Properties -> Forwarders tab is the setting Do not use recursion for this domain. On the Advanced tab you will find the confusingly similar option Disable recursion (also disables forwarders). Recursion refers to the action of a DNS server querying additional DNS servers (e.g. local ISP DNS or the root DNS servers) to resolve queries that it cannot resolve from its own database. So what is the difference between these settings? The DNS server will attempt to resolve the name locally, then will forward requests to any DNS servers specified as forwarders. If Do not use recursion for this domain is enabled, the DNS server will pass the query on to forwarders, but will not recursively query any other DNS servers (e.g. external DNS servers) if the forwarders cannot resolve the query. If Disable recursion (also disables forwarders) is set, the server will attempt to resolve a query from its own database only. It will not query any additional servers. If neither of these options is set, the server will attempt to resolve queries normally:... the local database is queried... if an entry is not found, the request is passed to any forwarders that are set... if no forwarders are set, the server will query servers on the Root Hints tab to resolve queries beginning at the root domains.Hope this is helpful rk


Can I use IP address subnet mask and default gateway given by my ISP while using DNS servers like OpenDNS?

Yes, you can use the IP address, subnet mask, and default gateway provided by your ISP while using DNS servers like OpenDNS. The DNS servers operate independently of your IP configuration, so you can configure your network settings to point to OpenDNS (or any other DNS service) without affecting your ability to connect to the internet. Just ensure that your IP settings are correct to maintain connectivity.


How DNS server caching works?

If a client send a query requesting for a particular web page to the DNS server and if the DNS server resolves the page from the other DNS servers & it will be store the same page in the DNS cache and it will give the response to the client with the requested page. If again the same web page is requested by any client then DNS server will get the web page from the DNS cache instead of again fetching the same page from the internet. With this there wont be any delay for the client to get the web page. This helps in bandwidth control. This is how the DNS server caching works.

Can you ping a dns address?

Yes, you can ping a DNS address, but what you're actually pinging is the IP address associated with that DNS name. When you ping a DNS address, your system first resolves the domain name to its corresponding IP address using DNS. If the DNS server is reachable and responds, you will receive replies indicating the latency and packet loss, similar to pinging any other IP address. However, keep in mind that some servers may block ICMP requests, resulting in no response even if the DNS is functioning correctly.
