> Domain Controller Computers
> Associated with the Domain hierarchy is the corresponding hierarchy of Domain Controller computers where AD provides LDAP services. Each domain may have multiple peer Domain Controllers and may also be distributed across geographical sites. The suite of Dell Remote Console Switches is designed to support both of these aspects of AD. DNS is used to determine the network coordinates of each Domain Controller so that the Dell Remote Console Switches can gracefully handle situations where some Domain Controllers are not available on the network. DNS SRV records are used for this purpose so the Dell Remote Console Switches always attempt to contact alternative Domain Controllers at the “nearest” site first, depending on the administrative settings configured in the SRV records.
