An Active Directory (AD) user or group is one whose access to Peer Management Center is authenticated through Active Directory.  Adding an Active AD user or group authenticates and authorizes that user or group members to use Peer Management Center.  The AD user or group must already exist in Active Directory prior to adding the user or group to Peer Management Center.  Active Directory users won't be able to access the web client until Active Directory authentication is configured in Peer Management Center.

Managing Active Directory users and groups involves:

•Configuring Active Directory Authentication

•Adding an Active Directory User or Group

•Editing an Active Directory User or Group

•Deleting an Active Directory User or Group
