********************************************************************
you can create dedicated LIFs to be used on each site. (with different VLANs, subnet, default route and DNS servers). and use the "-discard-configs network" to not have it as part of the identity preserve replication
*******************************************************************
Dedicated IP's are like a floading IP's between the sourt and the destination?
What you are saying here is in the case of if I set "identity-preserve=false", then I can use different VLAN. Correct?
In the case of "identity preserve=true", then I have to use the same VLAN for both Source, and Destination. Correct?
*****************************************************************
As for AD. the SVM should be detecting the correct AD server to use based on the site configuration you have in AD and the subnet the SVM is on.
*****************************************************************
How SVM can detect the correct AD severs?
Again, in the case of identity-preserve=false, I then have to use a different CIFS server on DR, still have to use the same AD domain name. Correct?
in the case of it is set to "true", then I don't have to do anything, but still have to be the same AD domain name. Correct?
As you can see, I am confused. Thanks for your patience.
