15.4 User accounts in Active Directory — domain mapping
207
Figure 15.13
Advanced options for cooperation with the Active Directory.
If
WinRoute
is installed on
Windows
, it is possible to allow authentication compatible with
older systems (i.e. authentication via the
Windows NT
domain). This option is required
if the domain server uses
Windows NT
or if any of the clients in the local network uses
Windows
of older edition than
Windows 2000
. In
Software Appliance / VMware Virtual
Appliance
, this option is not available (authentication in
Windows NT
domain is not sup-
ported).
Then, the settings include an option of automatic import of user accounts from the
Active
Directory
to the local database (upon the first logon of user to the firewall by their domain
name and password, an account with the same name will be created in the local database
automatically). This option is available above all to keep the environment compatible with
older
WinRoute
versions. In new installations it is strongly recommended to use domain
mapping — administration of users is much more simple and much less time consuming.
For details, see the
Administrator’s Guide
for older versions of
WinRoute
(versions
6.7.0
or lower).
Selection of a domain server
In the default configuration,
WinRoute
automatically detects domain servers for the spec-
ified domain and uses the first detected server for connection to the
Active Directory
.
Automatic detection simplifies configuration significantly (it is not necessary to specify
IP addresses of individual domain servers).
If necessary, you can specify name of IP address of a specific domain server. In such case,
WinRoute
will not perform automatic detection and will always connect to the specified
server only.
