Using multi-domain controller support in CIFS

Access Appliance allows you to set a comma-separated list of primary and backup domain controllers for the given domain.

Note:

You need to set dns nameserver for other domain controller (i.e. backup domain controller) using the network dns set nameserver command.

You will need to stop and start the CIF server.

To display the list of domain controllers

To display the list of domain controllers, enter the following:
```
CIFS> show 
```
If the primary domain controller goes down, the CIFS server tries the next domain controller in the list until it receives a response. You should always point Access Appliance to the trusted domain controllers to avoid any security issues. Access Appliance does not perform list reduction or reordering, instead it uses the list as it is. So, avoid entering the redundant name for the same domain controller.
