Integrated Dell Remote Access Controller 9 (iDRAC9) Version 3.00.00.00 User's Guide

Testing Active Directory settings using iDRAC web interface

1. In iDRAC Web Interface, go to iDRAC Settings > Users > Directory Services > Microsoft Active Directory, click Test.
   The Test Active Directory Settings page is displayed.
2. Click Test.
3. Enter a test user's name (for example, username@domain.com) and password and click Start Test. A detailed test results and the test log displays.

   If there is a failure in any step, examine the details in the test log to identify the problem and a possible solution.

   NOTE When testing Active Directory settings with Enable Certificate Validation checked, iDRAC requires that the Active Directory server be identified by the FQDN and not an IP address. If the Active Directory server is identified by an IP address, certificate validation fails because iDRAC is not able to communicate with the Active Directory server.
