How do you find primary and secondary DNS number?

Answer 1

could somebody help me out on this one i can't figure it out to?

there is no difference between a primary and secondary DNS server except that in normal operation the primary is the one that is tried first if that dosent work then the secondry is used, just list any 2 of the 3 you have as primary and secondry

Answer 2

This differs a little bit from operating system to operating system but I will assume you are working with Windows. If so then click on the Windows start button on the bottom left side, then in the search bar type "cmd" and then hit enter. This should open up command prompt. Then in the black window that opened up you should type "ipconfig /all" There look for something that says DNS servers. There will be an ip address listed right by DNS Servers. The first one listed is the primary, the one directly under it is the secondary and so on. There are also some websites that are able to detect this for you, but I would learn the command prompt way because that offers you a lot of tools and capabilities.

Also if you are unsure as to how to use a command then you could type "help" and that will bring up a bunch of commands. If you want to learn about the command and the different switches, or options available with them then type the command followed by a "/?". For example if you would like to find out more about the ipconfig command then you would type: ipconfig /?

This would display the options available with that command.

Happy networking to you:)

Answer 3

IF the DNS is already confiruged in the network

then

1. on command prompt type

IPCONFIG /all

will give you the IP of both DNS servers

2. check the TCPIP properties of NIC(ethernet card)

It will be mentioned/configured there
