Microsoft Active Directory monitoring and management plugin
Verax NMS Microsoft Active Directory management plugin enables easy monitoring, alerting, health check, management and performance reporting for Active Directory services. The plugin supports Active Directory on Windows Server 2000 and higher.
General information
The plugin provides all server information (domain controller, local domain, security identifier (SID), tree name, SAM name, etc.) as well as all current domain controller properties (common name, distinguished name, advertising locator, DNS registration status, Sysvol ready status, site name, percent of RIDs left and others).

- DNS Client
- Intersite messaging
- Kerberos Key Distribution Center
- Workstation & Server
- Net Logon

- Remote Procedure Call (RPC)
- Security Account Manager (SAM)
- Windows Time
Replication status
The plugin provides full information about replication configuration and its current status.
Trusted domains
The plugin provides full inventory information about trusted domains including name, security ID, attributes, status, trust type and others.
