The central forest also hosts user accounts for any users in this forest. Central forest topologies use contact objects in the central forest to represent users in the other forests. Lync Server supports multiple forests that are configured in a central forest topology. User accounts in a child domain of the domain with the Lync Server pool User accounts in a different domain from the Lync Server pool User accounts within the same domain as the Lync Server pool In this figure, a user icon shows the domain where the user account is homed, and the arrow points to the domain where the Lync Server pool resides. The following figure illustrates a deployment in a single forest with multiple domains.

Lync Server support for Windows universal administrator groups enables cross-domain administration.

However, if you deploy a Front End pool, you must deploy all the Front End Servers in the pool within a single domain. In this type of Active Directory topology, the domain where you create users can be different from the domain where you deploy Lync Server. Another Active Directory topology supported by Lync Server is a single forest that consists of a root domain and one or more child domains.
