Site Topology Planning Process

To create a site topology for a forest, use the following process:

• Define sites and site links using your physical network topology as a starting point.
• Place servers into sites.
• Understand how changes to your site topology after deployment will impact end users.

When creating the site topology plan, you will most likely need to consult:

• Teams that manage and monitor the TCP/IP implementation on your network.
• Domain administrators for each domain in the forest.

For more information about sites or any of the topics discussed in this section, see the Distributed Systems Guide.
