Zone transfers in AD-integrated DNS

[Einari]

Hi

We have just changed form standard DNS to AD-integrated
DNS and was wondering if we still need zone transfers.
Our infrastructure is the following:
We have one forest , root (with two DCs), two child
domains (with two DCs each).
We have DNS servers in root DC and one of each child
domain servers.
We have delegated each child domain dns zone to child
domain server.
All 'normal' dns queries are forwarded from root DC to
Unix DNS server.

So my question is like I said: do we still need zone
transfers here ?

Best regards
Einari

AD integrated zones are 1> multi-master (any server can
recieve dynamic updates) and 2> automatically replicated
through AD replication.
I don't see any reason you would need zone transfers
unless you want to replicate the zone to a non-AD
intagrated server.
