For Active Directory import to work:
■
Active Directory and Cisco TMS must be members of the same domain.

A service account for Cisco TMSPE in Active Directory with read access to the Global Directory must be available.

Cisco TMSPE requires a secure connection with HTTPS. When you upgrade or install Cisco TMS, the installer enables
