QuestionQ53

Deploy and manage AD DS

Your network includes an Active Directory Domain Services (AD DS) forest. The forest contains three Active Directory sites named Site1, Site2, and Site3. Each site contains two domain controllers. The sites are connected by using DEFAULTIPSITELINK.

You open a new branch office that contains only client computers.

You need to make sure that the client computers in the new office are primarily authenticated by the domain controllers in Site1.

Solution: Create a new site named Site4 and associate Site4 with DEFAULTIPSITELINK.

Does this achieve the goal?

Explanation

AD DS client site affinity depends on the client IP subnet being associated with a site. Site links define intersite connectivity and replication cost; adding an empty Site4 to the default site link does not associate the branch subnet or give Site1 a preferred, lower-cost path. Therefore, it cannot ensure that branch clients primarily use domain controllers in Site1.
