Configure an Alternate AD Server (Oracle ILOM CLI)

Typically, AD networks have multiple alternate AD servers. The switch supports a maximum of five AD servers, plus the primary. Use this task to configure alternate AD servers and set the order of importance for each server.

  1. Specify the alternate server's IP address.
    -> set /SP/clients/activedirectory/alternateservers/X address=IP_address
    ->
    

    where:

    • X is a number from 1 to 5 for each alternate AD server.

    • IP_address is the IP address of the alternate server.

    For example, to set alternate server 1 with an address of 123.45.67.89, type:

    -> set /SP/clients/activedirectory/alternateservers/1 address=123.45.67.89
    Set 'address' to '123.45.67.89'
    ->
    
  2. Set the alternate server's port.
    -> set /SP/clients/activedirectory/alternateservers/Xport=number
    ->
    

    where:

    • X is a number from 1 to 5 for each alternate AD server.

    • numberis the port number the alternate AD server will use for communication.

    For example, to set alternate server 1 to use port 190, type:

    -> set /SP/clients/activedirectory/alternateservers/1 port=190
    Set 'port' to '190'
    ->
    
  3. (Optional) Administer certificates for the alternate servers.

    See Manage Certificates for Alternate AD Servers (Oracle ILOM CLI).

  4. Repeat this task to configure the required number of alternate servers up to the maximum.
