Configuring Your px6-300d Network Storage to Use Active
Directory
If you have an existing Active Directory user organization, you can incorporate it into the px6-300d
Management Console. Your px6-300d can work in a high availability environment, which means it can
work with multiple AD servers should one server fail or go offline.
When you configure Active Directory, you enable security on your px6-300d.
1. To configure Active Directory, manually add the px6-300d to your DNS server. Set the px6-300d
DNS setting to point to your DNS server. On the Network page, uncheck Automatically
configure all network settings, type the IP address of your DNS Server in the text box, and click
Apply to save your settings.
2. Configure the px6-300d to join the Active Directory domain. On the Device Identification page,
select Active Directory if you already have an existing AD user organization that you want to
incorporate into the px6-300d.
3. Provide the following connectivity information:
● Domain Name — the actual name of your Active Directory domain, for example, sohoad.com.
● Preferred Server — the actual name or IP address of your Active Directory Server, for
example, ad-server.sohoad.com or 10.14.50.12.
● Netbios Name — An optional value that is automatically set to the first part of the Domain
Name. For example, if you Domain Name is testdomain.emc.com, the Netbios Name is
testdomain. You can edit this name or leave it blank.
● Organizational Unit — an optional predefined subset of directory objects within an Active
Directory domain.
● Administrator Username — the Active Directory username with domain administrator
privilege.
● Administrator Password — the Active Directory password for the specified Active Directory
username.
● Users/Groups Refresh Interval — how often the px6-300d should refresh the list of available
users and groups from the Active Directory server.
● Local Network Encryption (SSL) — enforces encryption on your local network.
● Remote Network Encryption (SSL) — enforces encryption outside your local network, such
as through the internet. Choices for both encryption types are Not required and Always
(encryption is always enforced). Always encrypting communication is safest, but can impact
performance.
● Enable trusted domains — enables your px6-300d to allow access to other domains.
4. Click Apply to save your settings.
