What is the best practice for configuring redundant DC/DNS servers. They are both GC servers, and both in the same site. Should the primary dns point at itself, or the other server? DHCP assigns them to the workstations as DNS1 primary and DNS2 secondary. Using the following nomenclature DNS1 and DNS2... DNS1 ip settings: primary=DNS1 secondary=DNS2 DNS2 ip settings: primary=DNS2 secondary=DNS1 OR DNS1 ip settings: primary=DNS2 secondary=DNS1 DNS2 ip settings: primary=DNS1 secondary=DNS2

Hello, The IP address settings in two DNS servers will be like DNS1 ip settings: primary=DNS1 IP-Addr secondary=DNS2 IP-Addr DNS2 ip settings: primary=DNS1 IP-Addr secondary=DNS2 IP-Addr Regards, Ravikumar P
