The NRPT is a new feature which was first introduced in Windows Server 2008 R2 that allows a client to assign a DNS server address to particular namespaces rather than to particular interfaces. The NRPT essentially stores a list of name resolution rules that are applied to clients through Group Policy. Each rule defines a DNS namespace and DNS client behaviour for that namespace.
This feature is essential to support new features of Windows such as Microsoft Direct Access.
When a DirectAccess client is on the Internet, each name query request is compared against the namespace rules stored in the NRPT. If a match is found, the request is processed according to the settings in the NRPT rule. The settings determine the DNS servers to which each request will be sent.
