|
|
Term

|

|
|
Term
| Active Directory will designate a(n) ___ within each site to manage intersite replication activity |
|
Definition
|
|
Term
| The minimum ___ that you can assign to a site link is 15 minutes |
|
Definition
|
|
Term
| Within a single site, domain controllers will use ___ to inform other DCs that intrasite replication needs to take place |
|
Definition
|
|
Term
The KCC is responsible for calculating intrasite replication partners. During this process, what is the maximum number of hops that the KCC will allow between domain controllers?
a. 2
b. 3
c. 4
d. 5 |
|
Definition
3
The built-in algorithm used by the KCC ensures that any Active Directory site is no more than three hops away from any other Active Directory site. If sites are added to Active Directory, the KCC can create additional connection objects to maintain this “3 hop” rule. |
|
|
Term
Replication that occurs between sites is called ____________ replication.
a. Local
b. Remote
c. Intersite
d. Intrasite |
|
Definition
Intersite
Intrasite replication takes place between domain controllers within a single
Active Directory site. Intersite replication takes place between domain controllers contained within different Active Directory sites |

Term
Company XYZ is a national company with locations in Detroit, Minneapolis, Phoenix, and Dallas. There are two connections between Detroit and Minneapolis. The first is a T-1 link and the second is a 128-Kbps link. When setting up the site links for replication, what should you do to ensure that the 128-Kbps link is used only if the T-1 is unavailable?
a. Set a cost of 1 for the T-1 and a cost of 5 for the 128-Kbps link.
b. Set a cost of 5 for the T-1 and 1 for the 128-Kbps link.
c. Leave the costs at their default value of 100.
d. Change the schedule manually to disallow replication on the 128-Kbps link until it is needed |
|
Definition
Set a cost of 1 for the T-1 and a cost of 5 for the 128-Kbps link
When selecting between multiple site links connecting the same two sites, the KCC compares site link costs and selects the one with the lower cost. Only if that site link is not available will it use the site link with a higher configured cost |
|

Term
You are the administrator for a network that has several sites. There is a site link from the main headquarters to each remote site for file transfer and replication purposes. You have been asked to create five new users on the network, and several of the users need immediate access to network applications. When asked by your manager how long replication of these new accounts will take, what is your response?
a. Replication occurs every 180 minutes by default.
b. Replication occurs at 15-minute intervals.
c. Replication occurs as soon as the account is added.
d. Replication occurs only between 12:00 AM and 6:00 AM. |
|
Definition
Replication occurs every 180 minutes by default
The default replication interval for intersite replication is every 180
minutes, which can be modified to take place as frequently as every 15 minutes. |

You are the administrator for a network that has several sites. There is a site link from the main headquarters to each remote site for file transfer and replication purposes. You have been asked to create five new users on the network, and several of the users need immediate access to network applications.
Given the scenario in question 4, how long would it take for other DCs within the headquarters site to replicate the accounts belonging to the new users?
a. Replication occurs every 180 minutes by default.
b. Replication occurs at 15-minute intervals.
c. Replication occurs within 45 seconds of the account being added.
d. Replication occurs only between 12:00 AM and 6:00 AM |
|
Definition
Replication occurs within 45 seconds of the account being added.
Replication within a single Active Directory site takes place almost immediately; therefore, DCs within the same site are brought to a consistent state as quickly as possible |
|
|
Term
What mechanism is used by an Active Directory domain controller to indicate that it has unreplicated changes to communicate to its replication partners?
a. Preferred bridgehead servers
b. Change notification
c. Site link bridges
d. Intersite replication |
|
Definition
Change notification
Active Directory domain controllers use change notifications to notify their
replication partners that they have changes available. The replication partner pulls those changes to update their own copy of the Active Directory database |
|
|
Term
When would you disable automatic site-link bridging within Active Directory Sites and Services?
a. When you need to configure intersite replication
b. When you wish to configure different costs for your site links
c. When your physical network is not fully routed
d. When you wish to control the hours during which intersite replication
will occur |
|
Definition
When your physical network is not fully routed
By default, the KCC assumes that all Active Directory sites are fully routable and can replicate with one another. If you want to change this default behavior, clear the Bridge All Site Links checkbox within Active Directory Sites and Services |
|
|
Term
To optimize client authentication and location of resources, which kind of object should each Active Directory site contain?
a. Site links
b. Costs
c. Connection objects
d. Subnets |
|
Definition
Subnets
Active Directory sites use TCP/IP subnets to map client computers to the
appropriate site for selecting the appropriate domain controllers and other Active Directoryaware resources. By configuring Active Directory sites with the appropriate subnet information, clients will authenticate to domain controllers located in the same site to conserve bandwidth and improve performance |
|
|
Term
Which of the following naming contexts are replicated across an entire Active Directory forest?
a. Configuration and Schema
b. Schema and DomainDNSZones
c. Configuration and ForestDNSZones
d. Schema and ForestDNSZones |
|
Definition
Configuration and Schema
The Configuration and Schema NCs are replicated to every domain
controller in an Active Directory forest. DomainDNSZones replicates to every DC in a particular domain that is configured as a DNS server; ForestDNSZones replicates to every DC in a forest that is configured as a DNS server |
|
|
Term
When creating a site link, you can configure it to use which of the following protocols?
a. TCP/IP or RPC over IP
b. RPC over IP or SMTP
c. SMTP or TCP/IP
d. SMTP or CIDR |
|
Definition
RPC over IP or SMTP
The two available protocol choices when configuring a site link are RPC over IP for high-speed reliable links or SMTP for unreliable links. Remember that SMTP cannot be used to replicate a Domain naming context |
