  • 1.  Session Manager and Active Directory

    Posted 08-29-2023 10:43 AM

    Hi All -

      I am trying to find any information on the ability to integrate and sync Session Manager CLI access with Active Directory. All searches (Avaya, Google, etc) have results in System Manager integration or some other non-related hardware piece. 10.X does not seem to shed any light on it either.

      Is it possible to integrate Session Manager but never documented?

      I am trying to prevent manually setup accounts and adjust as staffing adjusts. The access and passwords(in theory) would then be governed by the policies of the organization via Active Directory.

    Thanks for the time.

    Jason

    Hi Jason,

    What types of operations are perfomed on your Session Managers at the command line?  I'm curious.

    Hi Tom,

    Depends on staff experience with the OS but generally speaking of SM commands:

    initDRS
    initTM
    tshark
    traceroute
    traceSM

    Trying to not manually manage 20+ individual cust accounts across 30+ SM's. It would be a lot easier to sync for near real-time adds, removals with the added benefit of password policy compliance.

    I have a similar issues with the 200+ AVP/ASP ESXI hosts... there are some options but they all suck.
