I don't know how AD would handle it.  However, if someone else chimes in
with "That will blow everything up!" then it seems like maybe you could
go with /19 or /20 networks at the primary site in AD and then manually
add any of the other ones that don't fit nicely.  Maybe that could save
you some work??

Subject: [ActiveDir] Overlapping AD Subnet Boundaries

 

Say I create an AD subnet of 10.10.0.0/16 and assign it to our primary
site, and another subnet as 10.10.41.0/24 and assign it to a secondary
site. Will AD treat a client address of, say, 10.10.41.104 as a client
on the secondary site, or will it default to the more general primary
subnet? The reason I ask is we now have a need for a second AD site (I
can see all the enterprise folks grinning now) and we have quite a
number of other subnets that I'd have to manually enter if this is not
the case. I don't mind doing it, but I was curious either way.
