What does the dns record (same as parent record) mean in Microsoft DNS ?
"Same as parent" record is used to identify DC’s under a domain name.
The "(same as parent)" record is called the LdapIpAddress record. It is an important dns record. Without it, clients can’t find the DC, especially if it’s the only one, as well as the DC cannot find itself. That record gets created automatically.
