SSL communication between the adapter and Active Directory

Edit online

To use SSL-based encryption while communicating with Active Directory:

  • Active Directory must have enabled Public Key Infrastructure (PKI). PKI requires that enterprise certificate authority (CA) is installed on one of the domain controller workstations in the domain. Setting up an enterprise certificate authority causes an Active Directory server to get a server certificate that can then be used to do SSL-based encryption.
  • The certificate must be installed on the workstation on which Active Directory Adapter is running.
