For Bit Mask values for specific Role Group permissions, see Default Role Group Privileges.
Enter the FQDN of the domain controller, not the FQDN of the domain. For example, enter
servername.dell.com instead of dell.com.
At least one of the three addresses is required to be configured. iDRAC attempts to connect to
each of the configured addresses one-by-one until it makes a successful connection. With
Standard Schema, these are the addresses of the domain controllers where the user accounts
and the role groups are located.
The Global Catalog server is only required for standard schema when the user accounts and role
groups are in different domains. In multiple domain case, only the Universal Group can be used.
The FQDN or IP address that you specify in this field should match the Subject or Subject
Alternative Name field of your domain controller certificate if you have certificate validation
enabled.
If you want to disable the certificate validation during SSL handshake, enter the following RACADM
command:
• Using config command: racadm config -g cfgActiveDirectory -o
cfgADCertValidationEnable 0
• Using set command: racadm set iDRAC.ActiveDirectory.CertValidationEnable 0
In this case, no Certificate Authority (CA) certificate needs to be uploaded.
To enforce the certificate validation during SSL handshake (optional):
• Using config command: racadm config -g cfgActiveDirectory -o
cfgADCertValidationEnable 1
• Using set command: racadm set iDRAC.ActiveDirectory.CertValidationEnable 1
In this case, you must upload the CA certificate using the following RACADM command:
racadm sslcertupload -t 0x2 -f <ADS root CA certificate>
NOTE: If certificate validation is enabled, specify the Domain Controller Server addresses and
the Global Catalog FQDN. Make sure that DNS is configured correctly under Overview →
iDRAC Settings → Network.
Using the following RACADM command may be optional.
racadm sslcertdownload -t 0x1 -f <RAC SSL certificate>
2. If DHCP is enabled on iDRAC and you want to use the DNS provided by the DHCP server, enter the
following RACADM commands:
• Using config command: racadm config -g cfgLanNetworking -o
cfgDNSServersFromDHCP 1
• Using set command: racadm set iDRAC.IPv4.DNSFromDHCP 1
3. If DHCP is disabled on iDRAC or you want manually input the DNS IP address, enter the following
RACADM commands:
• Using config command:
racadm config -g cfgLanNetworking -o cfgDNSServersFromDHCP 0
racadm config -g cfgLanNetworking -o cfgDNSServer1 <primary DNS IP
