Mastering Active Directory - Second Edition

A and AAAA records

Host records are used to map a fully qualified domain name (FQDN) to an IP address. These records are used for IPv4, and AAAA records are used for IPv6. In AD and integrated DNS, every device will have an A or AAAA record when it is added to the domain. If the IP addresses are changed, the system will automatically update its DNS record, too.

To add an A record, run the following command:

Add-DnsServerResourceRecordA -Name "blog" -ZoneName "REBELADMIN.COM" -IPv4Address "192.168.0.200"

To remove an A record, run the following command:

Remove-DnsServerResourceRecord -ZoneName "REBELADMIN.COM" -RRType "A" -Name "blog"

To list A records in a zone, run the following command:

Get-DnsServerResourceRecord -ZoneName "REBELADMIN.COM" ...
