Cloud identities: -
Sync Identities:-
1. Sync identities are created on Prem active directory and sync with AAD
2. Authentication is processed by Azure AD, if password sync is enabled with Azure AD
3. For pass through and federated identity model, authenticated by On-Prem AD.
4. Can be managed by portal as well PowerShell
Sync rule
These rules are created in AD connect tool and you can see in sync editor rule. These rule define how
which attributes are sync with Azure AD.
Inbound rule: - The inbound rule update the information AD Connector space to Metaverse as well
as Azure AD Connector Space to Metaverse.
Outbound rule: - the outbound rule update information from Metavers to AD Connector space as
well as Azure AD Connector Space.
AD Connect has three partitions to complete the sync cycle such as Local AD Connector Space,
Metaverse, and Azure AD Connector Space.
1. Objects related attributes information’s is updated from AD to local AD Connector Space
after that metavers. From mettaver to Azure AD connector Space.
2. Objects related attributes information’s is updated from Azure AD to Azure AD Connector
space after that metavers. From mettaver to local AD connector Space.
3. So objects synchronization can be enabled both side vice versa
Synchronization
3. Data is copied from Metaverse to Azure AD Connector Space by outbound rule. Once data
has copied from metaverse, data is update in Azure AD. Same process is used for Azure.
Sync rule
Sync rules define every objects of AD such Users, Groups, Devices etc. AD object can have same AD
attributes or different attributes therefore each AD attributes has two rules, inbound and outbound.
If you AD sync three object of AD in this case six rule will be created three are inbound and three
outbound.
