AD Configurations
Add AD Module to CC-SG
CC-SG supports authentication and authorization of users imported from an AD domain
controller, without requiring that users be defined locally in CC-SG. This allows users to be
maintained exclusively on the AD server. Once your AD server is configured as a module in CC-
SG, CC-SG can query all domain controllers for a given domain. You can synchronize your AD
modules in CC-SG with your AD servers to ensure that CCSG has the most current authorization
information on your AD user groups.
Important: Create appropriate AD user groups and assign AD users to them
before starting this process. Also, make sure that you have configured the CC-
SG DNS and Domain Suffix in Configuration Manager. Please refer to
Chapter
13: Configuration Manager for additional information.
To add an AD module to CC-SG:
1. On the Administration menu, click Security. The Security Manager screen appears,
displaying the General tab.
2. Click Add… to open the Add Module window.
