CompTIA A+ Core 1 (220-1001) — Question 298

A small office wants to install a server that can provide name resolution for internal clients.
Which of the following server types would BEST accomplish this?

Answer options

• A. IDS
• B. DHCP
• C. UTM
• D. DNS

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is DNS, as it is specifically designed to translate domain names into IP addresses, facilitating name resolution for clients. While DHCP assigns IP addresses to devices on a network, and UTM provides unified threat management, neither of them performs name resolution like DNS does.
