Agenda

• Microsoft Active Directory
• AD Concepts
• NDS AD Passwords
• Financial Applications
• Hyperion
• Solomon IV

3
MS AD Concepts

• Organize and manage network resources
• Key features
• Structured Data Store
• Integrated Security
• Policy-based administration

4
AD Components

• Logical
• Forests
• Trees
• Domains
• OUs
• Trust Relationships

• Physical
• Sites
• Subnets

5
AD Logical Components

• Domains A group of computers that share a common
  directory database.
• Domain Trees One or more domains that share a
  contiguous namespace.
• Domain Forests One or more domain trees that
  share common directory information.
• Organization Units A subgroup of domains that
  often mirrors the business or functional
  structure of the company.
• Trust Relationships

6
AD Domains

• Group of computers that share a common directory
  database.
• Each domain has its own security policies and
  trust relationships with other domains.
• Domains can span more than one physical location

7
AD Trees

• One or more domains sharing a contiguous DNS
  name.

AD Forests

• One or more domains (trees) sharing the same
  directory data Global Directory
• Domain names within a forest can be
• Contiguous In the same domain tree
• Discontiguous DNS names form separate domain
  trees within the forest

AD OUs

• Logical containers into which you can place
  accounts, shared resources, and other OUs
• Often mirror an organization's functional or
  business structure
• Allows delegation of Control of resources (ie.
  users and computers)

10
AD Physical Components

• Sites One or more subnets they're used to
  configure directory access and replication
• Subnets A network group with a specific IP
  address range and network mask.

11
AD Sites

• Sites consist of subnets and computers that are
  be well connected (1 IP subnets)
• You can create multiple sites within a single
  domain or create a single site that serves
  multiple domains.
• Sites map the physical structure of your network
  (independent from logical domain structures)
• There is no connection between the IP address
  ranges used by a site and the domain namespace
• Sites are important to improve efficiency in
  service requests and replication

12
AD Subnets

• You can think of a subnet as a group of network
  addresses.
• Unlike sites, which can have multiple IP address
  ranges, subnets have a specific IP address range
  and network mask.
• Subnet names are shown in the form
  network/bits-masks, such as 192.168.19.9/32.

13
Sites vs. Domains

• Sites map the physical structure of the network
• Domains map the logical structure of the
  organization
• There is no necessary correlation between your
  network's physical structure and its domain
  structure Can have multiple sites within a
  single domain or a single site that serves
  multiple domains
