Container Description DNS: Primary DNS Primary DNS for name lookup DNS: Secondary DNS Secondary DNS for name lookup AD Domains Displays a list of joined active directory domains Select Join Domain to join an Active Directory domain. See below. Multiple Active Directory Domains You can join CPPM to an Active Directory domain to authenticate users and computers that are members of an Active Directory domain. Users can then authenticate into the network using 802.1X and EAP methods, such as PEAP-MSCHAPv2, with their own their own AD credentials. Joining CPPM to an Active Directory domain creates a computer account for the CPPM node in the AD database. If you need to authenticate users belonging to multiple AD forests or domains in your network, and there is no trust relationship between these entities, then you must join CPPM to each of these untrusting forests or domains. NOTE: There is no need to join CPPM to multiple domains belong to the same AD forest because a one-way trust relationship exists between these domains. In thsi case, you join CPPM to the root domain.

NOTE: For most use cases, if you have multiple nodes in the cluster, you must join each node to the same Active Directory domain. 262 Dell Networking W-ClearPass Policy Manager 6.0 | User Guide
