Re: Core servers

Hi

If I understanded you correctly you'll have the PDc, INF and RID servers in
a different subnet in the same site right?
According to this configuration the PDc, INF and RID servers will only be
used if the servers in the same subnet were the clients are fail.

I hope that the information above helps you

Good Luck

I am involved with an AD migration. The new domain structure is and empty
root, two DCs different sites, no user accounts. One child domain crossing
multiple sites. The designer has specified that the two domain controllers
holding the PDc, INF and RID roles for the child domain be isolated from
user
logons by placing in different subnet, authentication for user accounts
to
be carried out by other DCs on the site.
Given that authentcation is carried out to a local domain controller as
configured in Sites and Services, a local subnet will not isolate the two
DCs
holding these fsmo roles from being used to authenticate accounts,
separate
subnet or not. The term core servers is being used to describe these DCs
and
they are described as needing protection from user logons. Personally I
have
never heard of this configuration before. I cannot find any reference to
this
methodology. Can anyone shed any light on it?
