13.4 Active Directory domains mapping
One domain is always set as primary. In this domain, all user accounts where the domain is not specified, will be searched (e.g. jsmith). Users of other domains must login by username including the domain (e.g. drdolittle@usoffice.company.com).
Use the Add or the Edit button to define a new domain. This dialog includes the same parameters as the Active Directory tab in administration of an only domain (see above).
Notes:
1.By default, the domain defined first is set as primary. You can use the Set as primary button to set the selected domain as primary.
2.Membership of WinRoute in the domain is not necessarily required for primary do- mains (see Domain mapping requirements). Settings of the primary domain only define which users will be allowed to login to WinRoute (i.e. to the web interface, to the
Collision of Active Directory with the local database and conversion of accounts
During Active Directory domain mapping, collision with the local user database may occur if a user account with an identical name exists both in the domain and in the local database. If multiple domains are mapped, a collision may occur only between the local database and the primary domain (accounts from other domains must include domain names which make the name unique).
If a collision occurs, a warning is displayed at the bottom of the User Accounts tab. Click on the link in the warning to convert selected user accounts (to replace local accounts by corresponding Active Directory accounts).
