Managing Office 365 Identities and Requirements — Question 4

You are the system administrator for a small sales company in Chicago.
You must migrate all users to Office 365. You add a domain to the Office 365 tenant.
You need to verify the new domain.
Which type of DNS record should you create?

Answer options

• A. MX
• B. PTR
• C. CNAME
• D. SRV

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is C, CNAME, because a CNAME record is used to verify a domain in Office 365 by pointing to the Office 365 services. The other options, such as MX, PTR, and SRV, serve different purposes and are not used specifically for domain verification in Office 365.
