Field	Description
Conference room errors	Number of enterprise users for whom conference rooms couldn’t be
	generated.
	If you’re an administrator, this label is a link to the Conference Room Errors
	Report report.
	Note: If you don’t specify an Active Directory attribute for conference room ID
	generation, the number of errors equals the number of users.
Orphaned users/groups	Number of orphaned users and groups (that is, users and groups that are
	disabled or no longer in the directory, but for whom the system contains data).
	If you’re an administrator, this label is a link to the Orphaned Groups and
	Users Report.
Enterprise passcode errors	Number of enterprise users for whom passcodes were generated that aren’t
	valid.
	If you’re an administrator, this label is a link to the Enterprise Passcode Errors

Active Directory Connection

Auto-discover from FQDN

If this option is selected, the system uses serverless bind to find the closest global catalog servers. Enter the DNS domain name. We strongly recommend using this option.

If the system can’t determine the site to which it belongs, it tries to connect to any global catalog server.

If that fails, it uses the entered DNS domain name as a host name and continues as if the IP address or host name option were selected.

If this option is checked, the system attempts to connect to the Active Directory as follows:

1It looks up the LDAP servers for the DNS domain (using DNS SRV: _ldap._tcp.<domain-name>).

2It LDAP-pings every returned LDAP server until one responds with the system’s client site name.

3It looks up the global catalog servers for the site (using DNS SRV:

_gc._tcp.<site-name>. _sites.<domain-name>).

4It tries to connect to the global catalog servers.

5If it can’t connect, it tries other global catalog servers from the forest.

6If it still can’t connect, it uses the DNS domain name (using DNS A: <domain-name>) and connects to it.

Step 6 is the system behavior if this option isn’t checked.

The system’s Network Settings setup must have at least one domain name server specified.

Check the Active Directory Integration Report to see whether serverless bind succeeded and what the site name is.
