    What defines a chain of site links by which domain controllers from different sites can communicate?

    • Site link bridge

    • Site chain

    • Site chain bridge

    • Site link chain

    Correct Answer
    A. Site link bridge
    Explanation
    A site link bridge defines a chain of site links by which domain controllers from different sites can communicate. In cases in which there is a centralized site that connects two branch sites via site links, the site link bridge creates a direct link between the branch sites using the total cost of both site links to the central site.

    Rate this question:

  • 5. 

    Domain controllers located in different sites will participate in __________ replication.

    • Intersite

    • Extrasite

    • Extersite

    • Intrasite

    Correct Answer
    A. Intersite
    Explanation
    Domain controllers located in different sites will participate in intersite replication. Intersite replication occurs on a scheduled basis (every 15 minutes by default).

    Rate this question:

  • 6. 

    Active Directory creates a __________ with the idea that all writeable domain controllers in a domain should communicate Active Directory information to each other, in addition to communicating forest-wide information with other domains.

    • Replication topology

    • Domain topology

    • Replication strategy

    • Domain strategy

    Correct Answer
    A. Replication topology
    Explanation
    Active Directory creates a replication topology with the idea that all writeable domain controllers in a domain should communicate Active Directory information to each other, in addition to communicating forest-wide information with other domains. Sites and subnets defined within Active Directory will dictate the path used by replication traffic on the network, as well as form the basis for how Active Directory information is distributed.

    Rate this question:

    • 5 minutes

    • 10 minutes

    • 15 minutes

    • 1 hour

    Correct Answer
    A. 15 minutes
    Explanation
    Domain controllers located in different sites will participate in intersite replication. Intersite replication occurs on a scheduled basis (every 15 minutes by default).

    • Netstat

    Correct Answer
    A. Dcdiag
    Explanation
    Dcdiag is a command-line tool used for monitoring Active Directory. When run from a command prompt, this tool can perform connectivity and replication tests, report errors that occur, report DNS registration problems, analyze the permissions required for replication, and analyze the state of domain controllers within the forest.

    Rate this question:

  • 9. 

    Domain controllers located in different sites will participate in intrasite replication.

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. False
  • 10. 

    What command-line tool can be used to manually create a replication topology if site link bridging is disabled if the network is not fully routed?

    • Dcdiag

    • Repdiag

    • Repadmin

    • Netstat

    Correct Answer
    A. Repadmin
    Explanation
    Repadmin is a command-line tool used to manually create a replication topology if site link bridging is disabled if the network is not fully routed.

    Rate this question:

  • 11. 

    What is an alternative solution for intersite replication when a direct or reliable IP connection is not available?

    • IRC

    • SMTP

    • TCP/IP

    • ICMP

    Correct Answer
    A. SMTP
    Explanation
    Simple Mail Transport Protocol (SMTP) is an alternative solution for intersite replication when a direct or reliable IP connection is not available. SMTP, a member of the Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) suite, is the standard protocol used for message transfer, such as email.

    Rate this question:

  • 12. 

    The guiding principle involved in the KCC’s selection of replication partners and its creation of replication objects is the “Rule of Four,” which states that no single domain controller should be more than four network hops away from any domain controller that can originate a change to the Active Directory database.

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. False
  • 13. 

    Certain operations, such as a password change or an account lockout, will be transmitted by using __________ replication, which means that the change will be placed at the “beginning of the line” and applied before any other changes that are waiting to be replicated.

    • Urgent

    • Immediate

    • Fast

    • Pushed

    Correct Answer
    A. Urgent
    Explanation
    Certain operations, such as a password change or an account lockout, will be transmitted using urgent replication, which means that the change will be placed at the “beginning of the line” and will be applied before any other changes that are waiting to be replicated.

    Rate this question:

    Active Directory __________ provide the means by which administrators can control replication traffic.

    • Services

    • Sites

    • Domains

    • Forests

    Correct Answer
    A. Sites
    Explanation
    Active Directory sites are the means by which administrators can control replication traffic.

    The ISTG automatically assigns one server in each site as the bridgehead server unless you override this by establishing a list of __________ bridgehead servers.

    • Manual

    • Preferred

    • Static

    • Designated

    Correct Answer
    A. Preferred
    Explanation
    The ISTG automatically assigns one server in each site as the bridgehead server unless you override this by establishing a list of preferred bridgehead servers. The advantage of administratively assigning a preferred bridgehead server list is that you can determine which servers have the best processing power for handling replication traffic.

    Rate this question:

  • 16. 

    What describes the amount of time that it takes for all domain controllers in the environment to contain the most up-to-date information?

    • Replication

    • Convergence

    • Completion

    • Propagation

    Correct Answer
    A. Convergence
    Explanation
    Active Directory convergence describes the amount of time that it takes for this process to take place so that all domain controllers in the environment contain the most up-to-date information.

    Rate this question:

  • 17. 

    What process is responsible for selecting a bridgehead server and mapping the topology to be used for replication between sites?

    • Intersite Bridgehead Replicator

    • Intersite Replication Generator

    • Intersite Bridgehead Generator

    • Intersite Topology Generator

    Correct Answer
    A. Intersite Topology Generator
    Explanation
    To create a replication topology in a multisite network, one domain controller within each site runs the Intersite Topology Generator (ISTG), which is a process responsible for selecting a bridgehead server and mapping the topology to be used for replication between sites.

    Rate this question:

  • 18. 

    For both intrasite and intersite replication, what protocol does Active Directory use for all replication traffic?

    • RPC over SMTP

    • RPC over TCP

    • RPC over IP

    • RPC over ARP

    Correct Answer
    A. RPC over IP
    Explanation
    For both intrasite and intersite replication, Active Directory uses Remote Procedure Calls over Internet Protocol (RPC over IP) by default for all replication traffic. RPC is commonly used to communicate with network services on various computers, whereas IP is responsible for the addressing and routing of the data. RPC over IP replication keeps data secure while in transit by using both authentication and encryption.

    Rate this question:

  • 19. 

    How often does replication occur in intersite replication?

    • 15 minutes

    • 30 minutes

    • 90 minutes

    • 180 minutes

    Correct Answer
    A. 180 minutes
    Explanation
    The default replication frequency for a new site link is 180 minutes, but it can be configured to take place as frequently as every 15 minutes and as infrequently as once per week.
