domain type, specify the following parameters:

NT domain — domain name is required for import. The WinRoute host must be a mem-

ber of this domain.

Figure 15.11

Importing accounts from the Windows NT domain

Active Directory — for import of accounts, Active Directory domain name, DNS name

or IP address of the domain server as well as login data for user database reading (any

account belonging to the domain) are required.

When connection with the corresponding domain server is established successfully, all ac-

counts in the selected domain are listed. When accounts are selected and the selection is

confirmed, the accounts are imported to the local user database.

15.4 Active Directory domains mapping

In WinRoute, it is possible to directly use user accounts from one or more Active Directory

domain(s). This feature is called either transparent support for Active Directory or Active

Directory domain(s) mapping. The main benefit of this feature is that the entire administration

of all user accounts and groups is maintained in Active Directory only (using standard system

tools). In WinRoute, a template can be defined for each domain that will be used to set specific

WinRoute parameters for user accounts (access rights, data transfer quotas, content rules —

see chapter

15.1

). If needed, these parameters can also be set individually for any accounts.
