    netsh http add sslcert ipport=0.0.0.0:7466 appid='{APP_ID}' certhash=<CERT_HASH>.

SCIM attribute mapping with Active Directory

Active Roles provides support to connect to Starling Connect to manage the user provisioning and deprovisioning activities for the registered connectors. This is achieved through the internal attribute mapping mechanism. The AD attributes are mapped to SCIM attributes to perform each operation.

Configuring linked mailboxes with Exchange Resource Forest Management

The Exchange Resource Forest Management (ERFM) feature of Active Roles allows you to automate mailbox provisioning for on-premises users in environments where the mailboxes and the user accounts are managed in different Active Directory (AD) forests. Such multi-forest environments are based on the resource forest model, and mailboxes provisioned in such environments are called linked mailboxes.

Multi-forest AD deployments have higher administrative and support costs. However, they offer the highest level of security isolation between AD objects and the Exchange service. As such, One Identity recommends configuring the resource forest model for use with Active Roles in organizations that:

  • Aim for an extra layer of data security.

  • Frequently experience organizational changes (for example, buying companies, or consolidating and breaking off branch companies, departments and other business units).

  • Abide by certain legal or regulatory requirements.

AD deployments following the resource forest model use two types of AD forests:

  • Account forests: These AD forests store the user objects. Organizations can use one or more account forests in the resource forest model.

  • Resource forest: This AD forest contains the Exchange server and stores the mailboxes of the user objects.

For more details on ERFM, see Exchange Resource Forest Management in the Active Roles Feature Guide.

Prerequisites of configuring linked mailboxes

To use linked mailboxes with Exchange Resource Forest Management (ERFM) in Active Roles for your organization, your deployment must meet the following requirements.

Multi-forest deployment

Your organization must have at least two Active Directory (AD) forests:

  • Account forest: One or more forests that contain the user accounts.

  • Resource forest: A forest that contains the Exchange server and will store the mailboxes and the shadow accounts connecting the linked mailboxes to the user objects. ERFM requires a supported version of Exchange Server installed in the resource forest. For more information on the Microsoft Exchange Server versions supported by Active Roles, see System requirements in the Active Roles Release Notes.

For more information on planning and configuring multi-forest AD deployments, see Setting up a forest trust to support linked mailboxes and Plan a multi-forest deployment in the Microsoft documentation.

For more information on the Microsoft Exchange Server versions Active Roles supports, see Supported platforms in the Active Roles Release Notes.

Two-way trust relation

The resource and account forests must identify each other as trusted domains (that is, they must be in a two-way trust relation).

Registering the forests in Active Roles

You must register the resource and account forests in Active Roles via the Active Roles Console. For more information, see Registering the resource and account forests in Active Roles.

Applying the ERFM - Mailbox Management built-in policy

You must apply the ERFM - Mailbox Management built-in policy (or a copy of it) on the Organizational Unit (OU) whose users will use linked mailboxes. For more information, see Applying the ERFM Mailbox Management policy to an OU.

(Optional) Modifying the ERFM scheduled task

Once the ERFM - Mailbox Management built-in policy is configured for an OU, Active Roles synchronizes the properties of every managed master user account to the corresponding shadow account with the ERFM - Mailbox Management built-in scheduled task.

By default, the scheduled task runs on a daily basis, and normally, you do not need to modify its settings. To change the default ERFM scheduling (for example, because of organizational reasons), or run it manually so that you can immediately identify master accounts in your OU, see Configuring the ERFM Mailbox Management scheduled task.

(Optional) Changing the default location of the shadow accounts

By default, the ERFM - Mailbox Management built-in policy saves shadow accounts in the Users container of the resource forest. If your organization stores other users as well in the Users container, then One Identity recommends changing the container for storing the shadow accounts for clarity.

For more information, see Changing the location of the shadow accounts.

(Optional) Modifying the synchronized properties of the master account

By default, ERFM synchronizes a pre-defined set of user and mailbox properties between the master accounts and shadow accounts. If you need to modify and/or expand the default set of synchronized properties (for example, because of organizational reasons), open and update the applicable ERFM - Mailbox Management policy settings.

For the list of default synchronized properties and more information on changing them, see Configuring the synchronized, back synchronized or substituted properties of linked mailboxes.

(Optional) Delegating Exchange Access Templates

If you want to manage linked mailboxes with non-administrator users, you must assign one or more of the following Exchange Access Templates (ATs) to them in the Active Roles Console:

  • Exchange - Manage Resource, Linked and Shared Mailboxes

  • Exchange - Convert Linked Mailbox to User Mailbox

  • Exchange - Convert User Mailbox to Linked Mailbox

  • Exchange - Create Linked Mailboxes

  • Exchange - Read ERFM Attributes

  • Exchange - Recipients Full Control

TIP: To provide full control for a user to create, view, or change linked mailboxes in the Exchange forest, assign the Exchange - Recipients Full Control AT to them.

For more information on how to apply ATs, see Applying Access Templates.
