Microsoft 365 Administrator — Question 99
Your network contains an Active Directory forest named contoso.local.
You have a Microsoft 365 subscription.
You plan to implement a directory synchronization solution that will use password hash synchronization.
From the Microsoft 365 admin center, you successfully verify the contoso.com domain name.
You need to prepare the environment for the planned directory synchronization solution.
What should you do first?
Answer options
- A. From the Microsoft 365 admin center, verify the contoso.local domain name.
- B. From the public DNS zone of contoso.com, add a new mail exchanger (MX) record.
- C. From Active Directory Domains and Trusts, add contoso.com as a UPN suffix.
- D. From Active Directory Users and Computers, modify the UPN suffix for all users.
Correct answer: C
Explanation
The correct answer is C because adding contoso.com as a UPN suffix in Active Directory is necessary to align the domain for the synchronization process with Microsoft 365. Options A and B are not relevant to preparing for directory synchronization, and D, while related to user configurations, is not the initial step needed for successful synchronization setup.
