   Note: Ensure the correct Active Directory server is configured (Domain Controller, port and server type). For more information see Setting LDAP Credentials.

2. Click Browse. The Browse Active Directory dialog appears.
3. Enter a valid user name that has access to the LDAP or Active Directory server in the User Name box.
4. Enter the password associated with the user name in the Password box.

   Note: If all groups are to be listed, leave the Search field empty.

6. Select the AD groups you want to map to WhatsUp Gold groups.
7. Click OK to save changes. The Browse Active Directory dialog closes and the selected AD groups appear on the LDAP Credentials dialog in the AD group list.
