A.What does an RODC do? RODC provides a way to deploy a domain controller more securely in locations that require fast and reliable authentication services but cannot ensure physical security for a writable domain controller. Also, An RODC provides a more secure mechanism for deploying a domain controller. You can grant a no administrative domain user the right to log on to an RODC while minimizing the security risk to the Active Directory forest. You might also deploy an RODC in other scenarios where local storage of all domain user passwords is a primary threat. B.Are there any special considerations? To deploy an RODC, at least one writable domain controller in the domain must be running Windows Server In addition, the functional level for the domain and forest must be Windows Server 2003 or higher.
