trusting domain and the trusted domain
For the diagram above, we have the following summary:
When you create a trust from the Account Domain (trusted), the type of trust will be “incoming trust”.
When you create a trust from the Resource Domain (Trusting), the type of trust will be “outgoing trust”.
Remember that Direction of Trust is the opposite to Direction of Access.
