Hi,
I have the below infrastructure :
- Two Forests, having a trust setup working without any issue.
- Company has three physical sites : Site1, Site2 & Site3
- Forest1 has three AD sites : F1-Site1, F1-Site2, F1-Site3
- Forest2 has three AD sites : F2-Site1, F2-Site2, F2-Site3
- Forest2 has DFS instructure that has replicas on Sites 1, 2 & 3.
Currently DFS is being only used by Forest2's users. DFS target selection logic allows the client to use the closest target.
Forest1 users can access DFS BUT! they are going to a random target since they don't recongnize the AD sites in Forest2
My question is is there any way to control the DFS client logic in forest1 so that it connect to a specific target?
From my understanding is that Forest2 will respond to the client with the list of targets in a random order and the client will attempt to connect to targets one by one until it identify a reachable target.
Can I block using firewall remote targets to control the client behaviour.
DFS experts, need your help :)
Thanks in advance
