Reviewing the domain controller configuration

To indicate that a host is a domain controller, locate the domain-controller section in the configuration file and make sure its content matches the following structure:

<domain-controller>
 <local/>
</domain-controller>

The local tag indicates that this is a domain controller, and for other hosts to join the domain, you will need to establish a connection to the socket interface of this controller.

This defines interface ports on which the server is listening. A socket interface is used for CLI administration, and an HTTP interface is used for console webapp access--9990/console.
