Your company has a main office and a branch office. The main office contains 2,000 users. The branch office contains 800 users. Each office contains three IP
subnets.
The company plans to deploy an Active Directory forest.
You need to recommend an Active Directory infrastructure to meet the following requirements:
Ensure that the users are authenticated by using a domain controller in their respective office.
Minimize the amount of Active Directory replication traffic between the offices.
Which Active Directory infrastructure should you recommend? More than one answer choice may achieve the goal. Select the BEST answer.
A.
Two domains and one site
B.
Two domains and two sites
C.
One domain and two sites
D.
One domain and six sites
Explanation:
To minimize the amount of replication traffic, create 2 sites. To ensure that users are authentication by using a local domain controller, use two domains.
Active Directory Replication Traffic
I think the right answer is C) One domain and two sites
No need for two domains, one domain will be more than enough and keeps things simple.
Both requirements can be successfully fulfilled by creating AD Sites, putting a DC in each, creating corresponding subnets and adding them properly to the correct sites.
except you must have missed that requirement. There are 2 offices therefore there are two domain controllers
“Ensure that the users are authenticated by using a domain controller in their respective office”
Precisely. For each office there must be an AD Site and assigned to that site a Domain Controller.
Then, creating a subnet in AD Sites & Services for each office and assigning to the proper AD Site will make computers on each site use the DC in the same site.
I see what you are saying now but how do you satisfy the below requirement? If there is only 1 domain there will be a lot of replication traffic.
Minimize the amount of Active Directory replication traffic between the offices
Key Word ” Best ” Answer.
More than one answer choice may achieve the goal. Select the BEST answer.
Creating two domains is overkill, redundant, and NOT the best/easiest/most efficient/best practice way to go about it.
Eraser is correct.
1 Domain.
2 Sites.
1 DC in each site. Each site has its associated subnets that clients connect to (reducing traffic between sites).
