ii. DNS Zones

A DNS zone is the contiguous portion of the DNS domain name space over which a DNS server has authority, or is authoritative. A zone is a portion of a namespace - it is not a domain. A domain is a branch of the DNS namespace. A DNS zone can contain one or more contiguous domains. A DNS server can be authoritative for multiple DNS zones.
