AD Group Settings

In the Groups tab, you can specify the exact location from which you want to import AD user groups.

Important: You must specify Group settings before you can import groups from AD.

1. Click the Groups tab.
2. Specify a Base DN (directory level/entry) under which the groups, containing the user to be authorized, will be searched.

   Example	Description
   dc=raritan,dc=com	The search query for the user in the group will be made over the whole directory structure.
   cn=Administrators,cn=Users,dc=raritan,dc=com	The search query for the user in the group will be performed only in the Administrators sub-directory (entry).

3. Type a user's attributes in the Filter field so the search query for the user in the group will be restricted to only those entries that meet this criterion.

   For example, if you specify cn=Groups,dc=raritan,dc=com as the Base DN and (objectclass=group) as the Filter, then all entries that are in the Groups entry and are of type group will be returned.

4. Click Next to proceed. The Trusts tab opens. See AD Trust Settings
