A domain connection shall be activable only after it was checked: use button Check to verify it.

At click on button Check: itmSUITE will try to send a request to domain with inserted credentials.

If at least 1 connection is active the users with same login on domain could use domain credentials instead of itmSUITE credentials.

In this case the authentication follows these steps:

• 1. itmSUITE checks if login inserted is existing in its DB, otherwise access is not allowed
• 2. itmSUITE sends a request with pair login, password to domain controller
• 3. The domain controller checks if the login inserted is existing in domain and if password is correct
• 4. If domain controller response is positive: itmSUITE allows access
• 5. If domain controller response is negative: itmSUITE check password on its DB and grants access if check is positive, otherwise access is not allowed

More than one connection to domain(s) can be active at the same time: in this case the above step 2 is executed on each active connection.
