Configuring Active Directory Moderator Mode
VIA GO² enables you to import users from an Active Directory without having to create them
in the Gateway Management Pages. The Active Directory must be organized into two sets of
users: one that has permission to become moderator and one that does not have moderator
permission. When using Active Directory, only users that are in the directory can join a VIA
meeting.
