The DNS/DHCP Management Console provides similar interfaces for configuring both DNS and DHCP. The left pane of the DNS Service window displays all DNS resources, the right pane displays detailed information about the object selected in the left pane, and the lower pane displays all DNS servers.
The view in the left pane of the DNS Service window is similar to the DNS hierarchical structure, with the virtual All Zones object as the root of the three hierarchical levels shown. The first level contains the Zone objects, the second level contains the Resource Record Set (RRSet) objects, and the third level contains the individual resource records.
The view in the right pane of the DNS Service window provides detailed information about DNS objects selected in the left pane. The detailed information varies, depending on the type of object selected. For example, a Zone object's detailed information includes tab pages for Attributes and Start of Authority, whereas the detailed information for resource records provides only an Attributes page.
The lower pane of the DNS Service window displays all currently existing DNS Server objects in the NDS tree and a description of their operational status.
