Practice question 471 of 506 · medium

After a new branch subnet is added, clients obtain correct DHCP addresses but frequently select a distant domain controller. The WAN is congested and branch DCs are healthy. What should you correct before changing replication schedules?

Choose the single best answer.

A.Configure an external public DNS server as the first DNS server for branch members
B.Create or correct the AD DS subnet object and associate it with the branch site
C.Move the forest schema master into the branch to force all clients to use its DC
D.Increase the DHCP lease duration so an address implies the correct AD site

Show the answer and explanation

✓ Correct answer

Create or correct the AD DS subnet object and associate it with the branch site

AD subnet-to-site mapping helps clients locate an appropriate site and its domain controllers. DHCP lease duration does not establish AD site membership. Schema-master location does not direct routine client authentication. Public DNS alone cannot supply the domain locator records.
