• Use Configuration Manager Active Directory Forest Discovery to discover IP subnets and Active Directory sites and to add them to Configuration Manager as boundaries.

• Use Configuration Manager Active Directory System Discovery to search the specified Active Directory Domain Services (AD DS) locations for computer resources that can be used to create collections and queries. You can then install the client to discovered computers by using client push installation. To successfully create a discovery data record (DDR) for a computer, Active Directory System Discovery must be able to identify the computer account and then successfully resolve the computer name to an IP address.
