110 Using the iDRAC with Microsoft Active Directory
NOTE: The Bit Mask values are used only when setting up the standard schema
with the RACADM.
There are two ways to enable the standard schema in Active Directory:
• With the iDRAC Web user interface. See "Configuring the iDRAC With
Standard Schema Active Directory and the Web Interface" on page 110.
• With the RACADM CLI tool. See "Configuring the iDRAC With
Standard Schema Active Directory and RACADM" on page 112.

before an Active Directory user can access the iDRAC:

On an Active Directory server (domain controller), open the Active
Directory Users and Computers Snap-in.

Create a group or select an existing group. The name of the group and the
name of this domain will need to be configured on the iDRAC with the
Web interface, RACADM, or SM-CLP (see "Configuring the iDRAC With
Standard Schema Active Directory and the Web Interface" on page 110 or
