What are the details required while creating the site and subnet in active directory?

When creating a site and subnet in Active Directory, you will need to provide several details to ensure that the site and subnet are configured correctly. Here are the details that are typically required:

1. Site name: The name of the site that you are creating. The site name should be descriptive and should reflect the purpose or location of the site.
2. Site link: The site link that the site will be associated with. Site links define the connections between sites and determine the replication topology for the Active Directory environment.
3. Site link cost: The cost of the site link that the site will be associated with. Site link cost determines the order in which replication traffic is sent between sites.
4. Subnet prefix: The IP address subnet prefix for the subnet that you are creating. This is typically expressed in CIDR notation (e.g., 192.168.1.0/24).
5. Site name: The name of the site that the subnet will be associated with. The subnet should be associated with the site that contains the majority of the computers and devices that use the subnet.
6. Location: The location of the subnet. This can be a physical location (e.g., building, floor, room) or a logical location (e.g., department, business unit).
7. Description: A description of the subnet, including any relevant details such as purpose, usage, or special configuration requirements.

It’s important to note that when creating sites and subnets in Active Directory, it’s important to follow a consistent naming convention and to document the configuration details for future reference. This can help ensure that the Active Directory environment remains organized, efficient, and easy to manage over time.
