Newbie: Domain Controller Subnetting

Does assigning a subnet mandatory under Active Directory Sites and Services?

 

TREE Console:

Active Directory Sites and Services -> Subnets

 

 

The two Domain Controllers on my workplace has no data entered under Subnets

but shows a subnet when i type ipconfig/all on the command line.

Will this be a problem especially on DHCP leases?

If you have more than one site, and want your remote site authentication/etc

to work correctly, yes.

How many sites do you have? If they're in the same one, they know about the

subnet. You can enter one (and even rename the site to "World Headquarters"

or whatever) but you don't have to.
