How to check the DFL – FFL you can use GUI or Powershell.ġ- GUI, Right-click on your domain and then select properties. You can’t set the DFL (domain functional level) to a value that is lower than the FFL (forest functional level), but we can set it to a value that is similar to or higher than the forest functional level.

For example, if you raise the functional level to server 2016 we will not be able to install server 2012 R2 DC in our domain. Functional levels can be used to determine which DCs are allowed to run in our environmental. You will be limited to those features that come with Server 2008 R2. For example, if you create a new Group Policy Object (GPO) then this is first created in the directory database and within the SYSVOL share on the PDC Emulator, and from there the GPO is replicated to all other. AD features are not backward compatible with AD domain controllers on the earliest versions of Windows Server so if you are running Server 2008 R2 and you install server 2016. Another function of the PDC Emulator is that it is the domain controller to which all changes to Group Policy are initially made. That comes with server 2016 until we upgrade all our DC’s to server 2016 and raise the functional level. If you have DCs that are server 2008 R2, 2012 and you install server 2016 you will not be able to use the latest advanced features.
Generally, when you administer a large AD environment we will notice that you have various Windows OS versions on your DCs. That is accessible with the newest software that can be used in the domain. What you want to know about DFL and FFL is that they epitomize advanced features.
