MicrosoftDNS_RootHints class

The MicrosoftDNS_RootHints class describes the RootHints stored in a Cache file on a DNS Server. This class simplifies visualizing the containment of DNS objects, rather than representing a real object.

MicrosoftDNS_RootHints is a container for the resource records stored by the DNS Server in a Cache file. Every instance of the MicrosoftDNS_RootHints class must be assigned to exactly one DNS Server. It may be associated with multiple instances of the MicrosoftDNS_ResourceRecord class.
