# Enabling replication

Enabling replication between multiple PingDirectory servers ensures that changes within the replicated base distinguished name (DN) are automatically propagated to all other PingDirectory servers in the topology.

Configuration changes are not replicated by default but can be through the use of server groups. Each PingDirectory server should be configured according to the deployment design.
