Test-MtAdDisabledReplicationConnectionCount

SYNOPSIS​

Checks for disabled Active Directory replication connections.

SYNTAX​

Test-MtAdDisabledReplicationConnectionCount [-ProgressAction <ActionPreference>] [<CommonParameters>]

DESCRIPTION​

Replication connections are used to synchronize data between domain controllers. Disabled replication connections can cause replication failures and inconsistent directory data across domain controllers, potentially leading to security issues such as stale password data or inconsistent access controls.

Security Best Practice:

  • All replication connections should be enabled in a healthy environment
  • Disabled connections should be investigated and either re-enabled or removed
  • Unnecessary disabled connections may indicate incomplete decommissioning
