Skip this Step. You can run the Active Directory Wizard on the System Administration > Active 
Directory Wizard page. You can also configure Active Directory and other LDAP profiles on the 
System Administration > LDAP page.

The Active Directory Wizard retrieves the system information needed to create an LDAP server profile, 
such as the authentication method, the port, the base DN, and whether SSL is supported. The Active 
Directory Wizard also creates LDAP accept and group queries for the LDAP server profile.

After the Active Directory Wizard creates the LDAP server profile, use the System Administration 
> LDAP page to view the new profile and make additional changes.

On the Active Directory Wizard page, click Run Active Directory Wizard.

Enter the host name for the Active Directory server.

Enter a username and password for the authentication request.

Click Next to continue.

The Active Directory Wizard tests the connection to the Active Directory server. If successful, the Test 
Directory Settings page is displayed.

Test the directory settings by entering an email address that you know exists in the Active Directory and 
clicking Test. The results appear in the connection status field.

Click Done.
