Which of the following CLI commands empties the DNS server cache in Windows Server?

  • ipconfig /flushdns
  • Set-DNS -ClearCache
  • Delete-DNSCache
  • dnscmd /clearcache 

 EXPLANATION Dnscmd /clearcache clears the cache used for DNS server. Dnscmd is the tool used to manage DNS from the command line.
ipconfig /flushdns clears the DNS client cache. A DNS server has both caches but the client cache is the one used to provide name resolution for its own requests, not for other clients on the network.
