Hello Experts,<br />
<br />
I am not a server guy but have a question regarding external DNS.<br />
<br />
A company that I work for has a Microsoft DNS server on the DMZ. &nbsp;This server is authorative for their domain, we shall call &quot;pepsi.com&quot;. &nbsp;They can add public NS and A records and it populates almost instantly. <br />
<br />
My question...if I wanted to create my own public DNS server for another company, let's say &quot;Coke.com&quot;, do I need to work with the ISP? Somewhere along the line, the ISP has to know that &quot;coke.com&quot; should be sent to my DNS server.

The Domain Name System (DNS) is a hierarchical, globally distributed system responsible for associating the name of a computer, service or other resource into an IP address for connecting to the Internet or a private network. Most prominently, it translates domain names to the numerical IP addresses needed for the purpose of computer services and devices worldwide.
