We are working to deploy an Edge server in a DMZ. Can anyone give us any input on best practices around DNS settings on the Edge server inside a DMZ? Is it advisable to deploy a DNS server inside the DMZ as well?Stephen Stark

Hi,It depends how secure you want to make your environment. You can deploy a DNSwhich contains specific records from servers in your internal lanand then put forwarders to dns servers on the internet. For security purposes I think putting a seperate DNS server in the DMZ is the most secure option.Regards,Johanblog: www.johanveldhuis.nl
