Hi all, we have zone ageing / scavenging enabled on the DNS server 2008 R2. However there are a large number of duplications and old records which suggests its not working. It has been enabled since 2013 and is set for 7 days. Is there anything that can be checked?<br />
<br />
thanks

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.
