2 ACTIVE DIRECTORY SYNC VIEVU Solution AD Sync Guide OVERVIEW The VIEVU Solution AD Sync utility functions as a client application installed on a local computer which synchronizes your local Active Directory user accounts with the VIEVU Solution. CONNECTION Input the domain controller s information and specify an account with access to the domain. The Base DN can connect to an Active Directory OU or Domain. The Sync can be configured from 1-24 hours. Version

3 CONFIGURATION Once connected to Active Directory, you can choose to synchronize based on AD Group(s) or User Attribute(s), depending on how your Active Directory is structured. Match the VIEVU Solution fields to the appropriate Active Directory Attributes. Users also have the ability to not synchronize roles between VIEVU Solution and AD Sync. In cases when VIEVU Solution roles are managed differently from the Active Directory (AD) groups or attributes, the admin can clear the Sync Roles check box (shown below) so that AD roles are not copied to VIEVU Solution. All VIEVU Solution users are required to have a role assigned, so for new users, a default role (AD Sync) is created in VIEVU Solution when the Sync Roles check box is cleared. If the Sync Roles check box is cleared (as shown), roles of users already in VIEVU Solution are not changed or updated. Version

4 SYNCING For this example, Role is AD Group is selected, as in the previous window. When you run the sync operation, the program searches for an existing Role with the same name in VIEVU Solution. If a Role does not exist, the operation creates a new one in VIEVU Solution. Next, the program searches for a user that currently exists with the same login. If a user does not exist, a new user is created and automatically placed into that Role. Note: Users residing in multiple AD Groups inherit the first synchronized Group for that user. Version

5 FINISH AD Sync has been successfully configured. To Sync immediately, select the corresponding check box and click Finish. Version

6 If you selected Synchronize Immediately, the following window is displayed until Synchronization is complete. Version
