CompTIA Network+ (N10-008) — Question 136

A company is being acquired by a large corporation. As part of the acquisition process, the company's address should now redirect clients to the corporate organization page. Which of the following DNS records needs to be created?

Answer options

• A. SOA
• B. NS
• C. CNAME
• D. TXT

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is CNAME because it allows one domain name to be an alias for another, effectively redirecting clients to the corporate organization page. SOA records are for zone information, NS records manage DNS servers, and TXT records store text-based information, none of which provide the necessary functionality for this type of redirection.
