  Owner
  A field that indicates the DNS domain name that owns a resource record. This name is the same as that of the console tree node where a resource record is located.
  Time to Live (TTL)
  For most resource records, an optional field following resource record examples, the TTL field is omitted wherever it is optional. The TTL field is included in the syntax for each record to indicate where it can be added.
  Class
  A required field that contains standard mnemonic text indicating the class of the resource record. For example, a setting of “IN” indicates that the resource record belongs to the Internet class, which is the only class supported by Windows Server 2008 DNS.
  Type
  A required field that contains standard mnemonic text indicating the type of resource record. For example, a mnemonic of “A” indicates that the resource record stores host address information.
  Record-specific data
  A required, variable-length field that contains information describing the resource. The format of this information varies according to the type and class of the resource record.

This is a standard notation convention for resource records and is most often seen in the SOA record.

  @ 2008 DNS, it provides the means to locate domain controllers that use Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) service over TCP port 389.
  The purposes of each of the specialized fields used in an SRV resource record are as follows:
  service A symbolic name for the desired service. For well-known services, a reserved universal symbolic name such as “_telnet” or “_smtp” is defined in RFC 1700. If a well-known service name is not defined in RFC 1700, a local or user-preferred name can be used instead. Some widely used TCP/IP services, notably the Post Office Protocol (POP), do not have a single universal symbolic name. If RFC 1700 assigns a name for a service indicated in this field, the RFC-defined name is the only name you can use. Only locally defined services can be named locally.
  protocol Indicates the transport protocol type. Typically, this is either TCP or UDP, although any transport protocol named in RFC 1700 can be used.
  name The DNS domain name referred to by this resource record. The SRV resource record is unique among other DNS record types in that it is not used to perform the search or query.
  priority.
  weight.
  port The server port on the target host that provides the service indicated in the service field. The range of port numbers is 0 to 65535, although the number is often a well-known assigned service port number, as specified in RFC 1700. Unassigned ports can be used as needed.
  target Specifies the DNS domain name of the host that provides the type of service being requested. For each host name used, a corresponding host address (A) resource record in the DNS namespace is required. A single period (.) can be used in this field to indicate authoritatively that the requested service specified in this SRV resource record is not available at this DNS domain name.
  For more information, see the Internet draft “A DNS RR for specifying the location of services (DNS SRV).”

  2
  The DNS server has started.
  This event appears at startup when either the server computer is started or the DNS Server service is started manually.
  3
  The DNS server has shut down.
  This event appears when either the server computer is shut down or the DNS Server service is stopped manually.
  408
  This event indicates the DNS server could not open a.
  413
  This event indicates.
  Typically, the response to this event is to limit the DNS server to using only its configured DNS port for sending queries to other DNS servers. Use the Interfaces tab of server properties in the DNS console as follows:
  414
  This event indicates the.
  In general, the DNS server should be reconfigured with a full DNS computer name appropriate for its domain or workgroup use on your network.
  708
  This event indicates the DNS server did not detect any zones of either primary or secondary type. It will run as a caching-only server but will not be authoritative for any zones.
  3150
  This event should only appear if the DNS server is configured to operate as a root server. The DNS server wrote a new version of zone zonename to file filename. You can view the new version number in the Serial Number field of the DNS Manager Zone Properties dialog box.
  6527
  This event might appear when the DNS server is configured to host a secondary copy of the zone from another DNS server acting as its source or master server. It is always a good practice to verify that this server has network connectivity to its configured master server.
  Zone zonename expired before it could obtain a successful zone transfer or update from a master server acting as its source for the zone. The zone has been shut down.
  If the problem continues, one or more of the following options is available:
