Promote or Demote the Active Directory Server To provide for fault tolerance, an administrator can configure the PS Series group with the IP addresses of up to three Active Directory (AD) peers. When a user logs in to AD, the PS Series group attempts to contact the AD servers in the order in which they are listed. If an attempt to connect to the first server fails, the PS Series group tries to connect to the second, and so on. An administrator can adjust the order in which AD servers appear by promoting or demoting an AD server in the server list. To promote or demote a server to a higher position in the list: 1. Click Group → Group Configuration. 2. Click the Administration tab. About Group-Level Security 75
