4. If Using Active Directory
4. If Using Active Directory
What Can It Be Used for?
Active Directory can be used for uniform management of devices on the network, such as
server computers, client computers, printers and multifunction printers, and information on
the users who use them, such as identification information and access permission.
Devices and users are managed in fixed groups (referred to as “domains” or “AD domains”).
It is also possible to manage large organizations or networks comprised of multiple
interconnected domains.
Settings for Connecting to
Active Directory
Active Directory settings need to be
configured in sPSV if setting usage
limitations for users managed in Active
Directory and registering them to devices.
Memo
The operation to register user information
managed in the Active Directory to the
device can be performed smoothly if
all settings for the Active Directory are
completed before registering the device in
sPSV.
Active Directory settings can also be
configured after registering the device in
sPSV.
