AX needs AD for authentication and Security Reasons. Having 2 locations doesn't mean that you should have 2 domains.
Let's Suppose You have 2 Domain + 2ADs at different locations Having necessary setup's, in case of domain 1 is down, users are able to log on to 2nd domain to use application, Which means both Locations have high bandwidth connectivity. If you have High Bandwidth connectivity Make it simple. Just install one Domain + AD + one AOS of AX. ---------------------------------------- To connect AX client with multiple AX servers (AOS) change the server details in Control panel => Administrative Tools => Microsoft Dynamics AX Configuration Utility I hope this summarize your Query.
