Modifying Active Directory Properties
If your storage system is currently using Active Directory authentication mode, the menu item
Active Directory Properties will appear in the left pane when you click Users in the navigation
bar. When you click this item, you can change the IP address of your primary or secondary
Active Directory server, the user name or password for browsing the Active Directory tree, and
how frequently the storage system should synchronize with the Active Directory server.
To modify the Active Directory properties:
1. In the navigation bar, click Users.
2. In the left pane, click Authentication Directory Properties. This item displays only if you are
currently using Active Directory authentication mode. To determine which mode you’re
currently using, click “Authentication Mode” in the left pane and observe the mode specified
in the right pane. When you click Authentication Directory Properties, the Update
Authentication Mode page displays (Figure 3-16).
