6.5.4 Creating Active Directory groups that link with JP1/AO

If you want to implement group linkage for Active Directory groups in JP1/AO, you can use the procedure in this section to create user groups in JP1/AO that correspond to Active Directory groups.

Who can perform this task:

Users who have User Management permission and belong to the Admin role

To create groups that link with Active Directory groups in JP1/AO:

Display the Administration window.
In the Administration area, click the Users and Permissions menu command.
In the tree in the Users and Permissions window, select the Groups node.
In the Groups List area, click the domain to which the group you want to register belongs.
In the Groups List area, click the Add Groups button.
In the Distinguished Name text box in the Add Groups dialog box, enter the name that identifies the Active Directory group that you want to link with JP1/AO.

The name you specify must conform to the RFC 4514 specification.
If necessary, check the name you entered by clicking the Check DN button.

This button initiates a verification process that checks whether the distinguished name is specified correctly, and whether the name is registered in Active Directory.
Click the OK button.

Result of operation:

A group is created that corresponds to an Active Directory group linked with JP1/AO.
