Installing Insight in Active Directory Secure Mode
Insight has the ability to leverage Windows Active Directory to ensure that only authorized teachers
can control students. is mode adds an extra level of security to prevent unauthorized consoles
from being used. is mode will only function in an Active Directory Domain environment. To fully
configure this mode, you must have Domain Rights to create and populate a domain User Group.
1. To install the Active Directory Secure Mode, select the teacher or student installation.
2. Click on the Advanced Options checkbox.
3. Select Active Directory Secure Mode.
4. Repeat these steps for both teacher or student computers
When in this mode, a teacher must be a member of the Domain User Group Insight Teachers. If the
teacher is not a member of that group, then Active Directory Secure students will not interact with that
teacher. Creation of the Insight Teachers Domain User Group is done using the appropriate Windows
Server 2003 or 2008 Active Directory tools. Once the group has been created, those same tools can be
used to populate the group with the appropriate teachers.
Active Directory Secure Mode is not available yet for Mac teachers or students.
