CLI: Active Directory

You can use the active command to configure Active Directory (AD) settings on the appliance. Note that more steps may need to be taken outside the appliance to install and configure the Exinda AD Connector.

Configuring Active Directory on the appliance

active {port|renumerate}

To set the listen port for the Active Directory daemon:

active port <port number>

To force the Active Directory service to re-send information:

active renumerate {all|logins|users}

  • renumerate all - Re-fetch the entire list of users and logins.
  • renumerate logins - Re-fetch the entire list of logins from all clients.
  • renumerate users - Re-fetch the entire list of users from all clients.
