Thanks for the video. I have 2 questions:
1) Where should we install the VA? We have 2 DCs in one country another DC in another Country and local branch offices .
2) We have more than one internal DNS servers, how can we configure more than one Internal DNS server ? Can we provide domain name???

[@securewire]

You should be installing a pair of VAs at each site that has your local internal DNS server that performs Internet based resolutions (outbound) or in short where your DNS forwarding is configured. Alternatively, if you are using any small branch firewalls like Meraki MX or other vendor, you can leverage the Umbrella API to enable your branch firewall to talk to the Umbrella cloud dynamically. This way, you would not require VA.

What if I don't have a AD, is it a must to have a active directory? I have 8 sites they each have their own internet can i just point the dns to cisco umbrella and configure my firewall to drop any dns ?

[@securewire]

Surely! You can do that. AD is just used to pull the IP Username associations. However, you may be using an internal DNS server for your loal domain. In this case you should be pointing your internal DNS server to the Umbrella VA
