Active Directory external authentication service
NOTE: When adding an Active Directory external authentication service, you can allow trusted forests to be
discovered. A forest is a group of domains, and a forest may have a trusted relationship with other forests. In some
configurations, a user may belong to one forest but be assigned to groups in another forest. The Rack Power
Manager server needs access to both forests to authenticate and authorize this user.

1. Click the Users tab.
2. Click Authentication Services in the top navigation bar. The User Authentication Services
window will open.
3. Click Add. The Add Authentication Service Wizard will appear.

b. Select Active Directory from the menu.
c. Click Next.
