How to enter a domain into an existing forest?
Given: One domain controller, respectively, in one forest. It has the dns role installed. Network 192.168.0.0/24
Required: Add one more (not child) controller to this forest. Network 192.168.1.0/24.
Do I need to adjust the AD site structure? The existing one works by default, no networks were added.
On the existing WINDOWS SERVER 2008r2 domain, on the new one - WINDOWS SERVER 2016.

it will be the second CD in this domain? if so, it must be on the same subnet.
if not, and the second is the main CD of a separate domain, then one of the domains must be a child. and in any case, you need to create separate subnets for sites. if the first domain is in the 192.168.0.0/24 subnet of the default first site, then the second is in the 192.168.1.0/24 subnet of the xxxxxxxx site.
another option is if you just need to make two different domains with different forests friends with each other. it's a federation.
