Many inter-domain and inter-forest transactions depend on domain or forest trusts in order to complete various tasks. This section describes the processes and interactions that occur as resources are accessed across trusts and authentication referrals are evaluated.

### Overview of authentication referral processing
110110

111111
When a request for authentication is referred to a domain, the domain controller in that domain must determine whether a trust relationship exists with the domain from which the request comes. The direction of the trust and whether the trust is transitive or nontransitive must also be determined before it authenticates the user to access resources in the domain. The authentication process that occurs between trusted domains varies according to the authentication protocol in use. The Kerberos V5 and NTLM protocols process referrals for authentication to a domain differently

When two forests are connected by a forest trust, authentication requests made using the Kerberos V5 or NTLM protocols can be routed between forests to provide access to resources in both forests.

To provide identity services, Azure creates an AD DS instance on a virtual network of your choice. Behind the scenes, a pair of Windows Server domain controllers is created that run on Azure VMs. You don't need to manage, configure, or update these domain controllers. The Azure platform manages the domain controllers as part of the Azure AD DS service.

The Azure AD DS managed domain is configured to perform a one-way synchronization from Azure AD to provide access to a central set of users, groups, and credentials. You can create resources directly in the Azure AD DS managed domain, but they aren't synchronized back to Azure AD. Applications, services, and VMs in Azure that connect to this virtual network can then use common AD DS features such as domain join, group policy, LDAP, and Kerberos / NTLM authentication.
