We are going to connect your AirWatch environment with your Active Directory. We will be using the Directory Services page to configure the settings that let you integrate your AirWatch server with your organization’s domain controller (the server hosting your directory services system).

The scenario outlined in this tutorial assumes that you already have the following items:

  • Active Directory
  • AirWatch

Log in to your AirWatch Admin Console and navigate to:
System -> Enterprise Integration -> Directory Services
