NOTE The connection to the Active Directory Server might fail
due to a missing CA Root Certificate on the device and a missing
Server Certificate on the AD Server. (See: "Import/Install an Active
Directory server certificate on the Active Directory server" and
"Import/Install a Certificate Authority (CA Root certificate on the
Active Directory server"). A CA can be either: Third-Party (GoDaddy,
Symantec, Comodo) or Self-Signed - Internal CA (AD CS)
• Check the DNS Server IP assignment on the device via DHCP or Static configuration.
○ Make sure that the assigned DNS Server(s) on the device can successfully query for the
Domain Name entered on the Active Directory User Interface.
CA Root Certificate format
• The CA Root Certificate can be either in PEM or DER format and can have extensions: “.pem”, “.der”,
“.crt”, or “.cer”.
• These certificate files are converted into PEM format during the load process on the device.
