2. In the right pane, right-click your DNS server and select Configuration.

3. In the DNS Configuration window, select the zone type that you want to create by right-clicking either the Forward Lookup Zone or the Reverse Lookup Zone folder.

4. Follow the wizard’s instructions to complete the creation process.
