9Click Next. The Active Directory Configuration and Management Step 2 of 4 page is displayed.

10Select Enable Active Directory.

CAUTION: In this release, the Smart Card based Two Factor Authentication (TFA) feature is not supported if the Active directory is configured for Extended schema. The Single Sign-On (SSO) feature is supported for both Standard and Extended schema.

11Click Add to enter the user domain name.

12Type the user domain name in the prompt and click OK.

NOTE: This step is optional. If you configure a list of user domains, the list will be available in the Web-based interface login screen. You can choose from the list, and then you only need to type the user name.

13In the Timeout field, type time (in seconds) iDRAC must wait for Active Directory responses. The default is 120 seconds.

14Select one of the following options:

a Look Up Domain Controllers with DNS to obtain the Active Directory domain controllers from a DNS lookup. Domain Controller Server Addresses 1-3 are ignored. Select User Domain from Login to perform the DNS lookup with the domain name of the login user. Else, select Specify a Domain and enter the domain name to use on the DNS lookup. iDRAC6 attempts to connect to each of the addresses (first 4 addresses returned by the DNS look up) one by one until it makes a successful connection. For Extended Schema, the domain controllers are where the iDRAC6 device object and the Association objects are located.

b Specify Domain Controller Addresses option to allow iDRAC6 to use the Active Directory domain controller server addresses that are specified. DNS lookup is not performed. Specify the IP address or the Fully Qualified Domain Name (FQDN) of the domain controllers. When the Specify Domain Controller Addresses option is selected, at least one of the three addresses must be configured. iDRAC6 attempts to connect to each of the configured addresses one by one until it makes a successful connection. For Extended Schema, these are the addresses of the domain controllers where the iDRAC6 device object and the Association objects are located.
