## Representation

The Site node represents an Active Directory site object. An AD site maps one or more IP subnets with LAN connectivity and contains the directory server objects for that site. BloodHound uses the site to represent its linked [GPOs](/resources/nodes/gpo), [site servers](/resources/nodes/site-server), and [site subnets](/resources/nodes/site-subnet).

A GPO linked to a site applies to the site's domain controllers and to computers whose IP address belongs to one of the site's subnets. If the site is the default site, it also applies to computers that do not map to another site. Users who sign in to those computers are affected by user-side policy settings.

The node supports the properties of the table below.
