Configuring DNS for a KMS host

If you have multiple KMS servers in your domain, or want to add an other KMS server from outside the domain, just ad an SRV entry in your DNS.

Name Setting
Name _vlmcs._tcp
Type SRV
Priority 0
Weight 0
Port 1688
Hostname FQDN of KMS Host

With the priority you can add a preferred server. If you choose a higher number for the kms record, this record comes after the record with “0”.
