Microsoft Certification - Stub Zone vs. Delegation (70-291)

04-23-2005, 11:24 AM

I'm studying for my 70-291 exam and need to clarify the advantages of
a stub zone vs. a delegation. From what I understand a stubzone is a
kind of superset of a delegation with the extra benefits being
automatic updates of NS records in the child zone and also not being
tied to the parent in domain namespace.

ie) A stub zone in mel.company1.intranet can point to
syd.company2.intranet directly where as a delegation would have to be
done on company2.intranet to point to syd.company2.intranet

Is my understanding of this correct? Can anyone tell me what a
delegation can do that a stub zone can't?

Thanks!

From my understanding, stub zones are only useful between zones in a
contiguous namespace.

Excuse me, I meant non-contiguous namespaces.
