Azure Object Management in Non-Federated environment

Non-federated environment is used generally for testing purposes. In non-federated environment, most of the Azure properties can be modified, other than attributes such as UserPrincipalName and ObjectId which identify the object uniquely.

The following table provides information about the operations and methods of operation that can be performed on Azure Objects in a non-federated environment.

Azure Object Management in Federated and Synchronized Identity environments

Synchronization methods are applicable only in Synchronized and Federated environments and AAD Connect is used to perform the synchronization. Azure non-federated environment does not require synchronization and the direct GRAPH API calls are used to make the Azure or Office 365 object management.

The following table provides information about the operations and methods of operation that can be performed on Azure Objects in Federated and Synchronized Identity environments.

NOTE:

  • *Active Roles provides cloud-only support only for Native Office 365 Group management.
  • Synced using AAD Connect referenced in the table specifies that the object operation is initially performed on the on-premise object . After a Microsoft Azure AD Connect synchronization cycle, the object is updated in Azure AD or Office 365.

  • For more information on how to perform Back Sync operation refer Active Roles Configuration to synchronize existing Azure AD objects to Active Roles in the Active Roles Administration Guide.

Appendix E: Enabling Federated Authentication

To enable Federated Authentication in Active Roles, perform the following procedures.

NOTE: To access the Active Roles Web Interface for Federated Authentication purposes, you can use any of the following supported web browsers: Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, or Microsoft Edge on Windows 10.

NOTE: While switching between the STS providers, restart IIS and clear the browser cache.

  1. Configuring the domain service account for Federated Authentication

  2. Updating Local Policies

  3. Creating SPN entries for the domain service account

  4. Enabling delegation for Federated Authentication

Configuring the domain service account for Federated Authentication

To create a dedicated Federated Authentication domain service account and configure its domain and local group memberships, follow the steps.

To configure the domain service account for Federated Authentication

  1. Create a dedicated Federated Authentication domain service account, for example: _arfed.

  2. Ensure that the domain service account has a password that does not expire and set the following:

    1. To configure domain group membership, add the domain service account to the Domain Users group.

    2. To configure local group membership on the Active Roles server with the Active Roles Web Interface, add the domain service account to both Distributed COM Users and IIS_USRS groups.
