Hello Luiz,

During login process one available DC will be used, you can not specify a
special one. What you can and should do is to configure Active directory
sites and services with the subnets and create sites for every subnet to
move the DC's to the subnet where they belong to. Then the clients will first
try to authenticate against this DC's before choosing another one.

Best regards

Using Sites & Services is the best way to go - that leaves the machines
free when it comes to downtimes or heavy loads - they're load balanced
when they're able to choose which DC to take.

cheers,
