Using Multiple AD domains with ACS

[clarke.jason.kit]

Hi,

Is it possible to use multiple domains for authentication with ACS? I need to use AAA to authenticate remote users into a centralised location but the users will be from different domains and I was hoping to use a single applicance to cater for all domains. Can this be achieved using LDAP? I understand that ACS can only be part of one AD domain.....

In essence I am hoping that I will be able to authenticate the user based on their domain\credentials.

Thanks in advance

ACS can only join one domain, but it can authenticate users in other domains if there are trusts established.

Hi Javier,

I understand that ACS can only join a single AD domain - but can it use LDAP to authenticate users from different AD domains - I don't want to have to established trusts between different domains.

Kind regards
