More detail would have been nice.

<div class="content wysiwyg-content">
I want to ask a rather difficult question about the best way, and most efficient way to configure DNS (and the network in general) for the following network. <br />
<br />
4 Locations will be bridged with MPLS and each connection will have a 1.5mbps connection back to the host location (Location A). Bandwidth for internet will be fed through Location A.<br />
Location A) 192.168.1.x<br />
Location B) 192.168.2.x<br />
Location C) 192.168.3.x<br />
Location D) 192.168.4.x<br />
<br />
Location A has a server running Active Directory for authentication as well as its acting as a fileserver. MPLS routers will handle DHCP, but whats the most effective way and efficient way to ensure that all locations get speedy access to the server residing on Network A. <br />
<br />
Also, is it possible for Windows Server 2003 to replicate (in both directions) a fileserver to network attached storage devices that would reside at Location B, Location C, and Location D to minimize bandwidth usage over the network.<br />
<br />
I have my own ideas, but I wanted to see what others out there would recommend. Thanks for your time!<br />

Best way to configure new MPLS network

The Windows operating systems have distinct methodologies for designing and implementing networks, and have specific systems to accomplish various networking processes, such as Exchange for email, Sharepoint for shared files and programs, and IIS for delivery of web pages. Microsoft also produces server technologies for networked database use, security and virtualization.

Windows Networking

Network analysis is the process of identifying and remediating the processes and systems within a network, including performance, connectivity and security. The process is performed through the use of tools developed for monitoring and analyzing network activity. Network problems that involve finding an optimal way of doing something are studied under the name combinatorial optimization. Examples include network flow, shortest path problem, transport problem, transshipment problem, location problem, matching problem, assignment problem, packing problem, routing problem, Critical Path Analysis and PERT (Program Evaluation & Review Technique).

Network Analysis

The Domain Name System (DNS) is a hierarchical, globally distributed system responsible for associating the name of a computer, service or other resource into an IP address for connecting to the Internet or a private network. Most prominently, it translates domain names to the numerical IP addresses needed for the purpose of computer services and devices worldwide.
