Here is a high-level description of how bronze level integration works for adding a new user. For an illustration see, Bronze Level Integration with Active Directory Services.

• Provisioning:

  • Add the user to the authoritative source (Windows Active Directory Services).

  • Add the user to AE Services User Management database with the CT User flag set to yes. This will effect an update to the AE Services SDB.

• Authentication:

  • A user attempts to log in (as a client of the TSAPI Service).

  • The user is authenticated against the Windows Active Directory Services based User Management.

  • User permissions are derived from the AE Services SDB.
