The Knowledge Consistency Checker (KCC) ensures the maximum number of hops between any two domain controllers does not exceed wh
Katarina [22]

Answer:

Three (3)

Explanation:

Explanation of the three basic terms here - Knowledge consistency checker, hops and domain controller - will give a clearer answer and explanation to the question as follows;

<em>Domain controller</em> : is a server controller that gives access or controls to users on computer networks by first responding to their authentication requests and verifying those users. In other words, a domain controller is a network security manager.

<em>Hop</em> : A hop is simply the passage of data packets from one network to another. As  a packet moves from its source to destination, it moves from router to router. The number of such routers that the packet passes through is called a hop.

<em>The Knowledge Consistency Checker (KCC)</em> :  It is the job of the KCC to ensure that these domain controllers participate in the replication promptly and orderly. Replication means copying data from one location to another (within a network or among networks). The KCC ensures that the maximum number of hops permitted is does not exceed 3. i.e no domain controller is more than 3 hops from any other domain controller within a network.

Note: Replication is of two types - intrasite (among all domain controllers within a site) and intersite (among all domain controllers in different sites), and the KCC can manage both type of replication. Also, by default, at every 15 minutes interval, a domain controller generates a replication topology (a logical map that dictates the domain controllers that will replicate with each other).

<em>Hope this helps!</em>

Multicasting defines the transfer of data from more than one sender to more than one recipients.
