A network administrator is configuring a DNS server and needs to ensure that it provides authoritative DNS responses for a domain within their organization. Which type of DNS zone should be configured to achieve this requirement?
Reverse zone
Forward zone
Secondary zone
Authoritative zone
An authoritative zone is the correct answer because it allows a DNS server to provide official answers to queries about domain names within its configured domain, signifying that it holds the conclusive dataset for that specific zone. A forward zone is just another name for a standard authoritative zone, thus not a contrasting choice. A secondary zone, while holding a copy of the authoritative data, relies on a primary zone for its data, hence it is not the primary source. A reverse zone, on the other hand, is used for resolving IP addresses to host names and doesn't pertain directly to authoritative answers for domain name queries.
