Installation Manual
Configuring the iDRAC6 Using the Web Interface 69
Domain Controller 
Server Address 1-3 
(FQDN or IP)
Specifies the fully qualified domain name (FQDN) of the 
domain controller or the IP address. At least one of the 3 
addresses is required to be configured. iDRAC6 attempts to 
connect to each of the configured addresses one-by-one 
until it makes a successful connection. If extended schema 
is selected, these are the addresses of the domain controllers 
where the iDRAC6 device object and the Association 
objects are located. If standard schema is selected, these are 
the addresses of the domain controllers where the user 
accounts and the role groups are located.
Certificate Validation 
Enabled
iDRAC6 uses Security Socket Layer (SSL) while connecting 
to Active Directory. By default, iDRAC6 uses the CA 
certificate loaded in iDRAC6 to validate the Security Socket 
Layer (SSL) server certificate of the domain controllers 
during Security Socket Layer (SSL) handshake and provides 
strong security. The certificate validation can be disabled for 
testing purpose or the system Administrator chooses to trust 
the domain controllers in the security boundary without 
validating their Security Socket Layer (SSL) certificates. 
This option specifies whether Certificate validation is 
enabled or disabled.
