Active Directory Site Link Costs
Active Directory Site Link Costs
When designing Active Directory Site Links, the first step is to determine the site link’s cost, schedule, and replication interval. In this summary, we will focus on the cost attribute. Determining the cost associated with the replication path is required because the KCC uses cost information to determine the least “expensive” route for replication between two sites that replicate the same directory partition.
The default cost for a site link is 100. However, it is more appropriate to assign a cost link relative to the available bandwidth of the network connection between the two sites replicating. The lower the cost, the more preferred the connection becomes. Here is an example of some costs (recommended by Microsoft) as a best practice.
So, that’s all in this blog. I will meet you soon with next stuff .Have a nice day !!!
