Lab Review
1. In Exercise 2-2-2, you saw the two different types of error pages that IIS7 can generate. By default, the Web server displays detailed error pages in response to local requests and the simple error pages in response to remote requests. What is the main reason for providing less error information to remote users?
The main reason for providing less error information to remote users is to prevent potential security breaches that can be found in detailed messages.
2. In Exercise 2-2-3, you created two CNAME resource records in your domain using the DNS Manager console. Why was it necessary to create these records? It was necessary to create resource records registering two different names for the Web server so that IIS could differentiate between the incoming requests intended for the two Websites you created.
3. In Exercise 2-2-3, why did you create CNAME resource records instead of standard Host (A) records in the DNS?
By creating CNAME records and equating the alternative names with the servers original FQDN (server99.contoso.com), the aliases remain
