Question
Your company has a main office and a branch office. The main office has a domain controller named DC1 that hosts a DNS primary zone. The branch office has a DNS server named SRV1 that hosts a DNS secondary zone. All client computers are configured to use their local server for DNS resolution. You change the IP address of an existing server named SRV2 in the main office. You need to ensure that SRV1 reflects the change immediately. What should you do?

Explanation
dnscmd ServerName /zonerefresh ZoneName - Forces a secondary DNS zone to update from Parameters ServerName: Specifies the DNS server the administrator plans to manage, represented by IP address, FQDN, or Host name. If omitted, the local server is used. ZoneName: Specifies the name of the zone to be refreshed. The zonerefresh operation forces a check of the version number in the master's SOA record. If the version number on the master is higher than the secondary's version number, then a zone transfer is initiated, updating the secondary server. If the version number is the same, no zone transfer occurs. The forced check occurs by default every 15 minutes. To change the default, use the dnscmd config refreshinterval operation.
